Vanrath were absolutely brilliant in helping me get a new role in the field of environmental science. Shannon McKinley, the senior science specialist recruiter, was friendly, helpful, attentive and on the ball with turning around my application. I would highly recommend contacting Shannon if you are looking for a new environmental science role.

I dealt with Richard in my interview process with the company who was very helpful and communicated everything clearly. The feedback was very quick and well explained. I would recommend Vanrath as a place to work

I could not fault Dan from Vanrath. We spoke for the first time on a Friday and by Tuesday I had been offered a position that was right up my street. Dan was not only been supportive and communicative throughout the process but also friendly and welcoming. Would absolutely recommend!
