You guys were the only supplier that we felt got us and our frustrations. The support was second to none. Anyone currently pondering on Wave and their products, its a relationship worth having. It's a breath of fresh air. It feels like recruiters speaking to recruiters rather than supplier talking sales to a recruiter! That's the truth and all the compliments you are getting!!!

Amanda Franks

…it’s all about speed and simplicity. It’s vital for our busy agency to be able to operate and we get that with Wave.

Suzie Butler - Philosophy Education

As an early advocate of WaveTrackR, it was great to see the CV search aspect implemented, it has been notably refined in recent times, and all my consultants can complete their job board searches in one place. This saves us time and helps us operate more efficiently as a business.

Will Morris - Profectus Recruitment

Wave has given us so much time back. We fully appreciate the holistic approach to having our multi-poster and media strategy through one supplier.

Kate Boyle - Tay Associates

They were able to support us with our website and transition perfectly, and really appreciate their speed and responsiveness to any queries. I would highly recommend.

Techfueld

I wouldn’t just recommend Wave. I would say you would be crazy not to sign up with them based on what we have experienced.

Tangent

Working with Wave has allowed us to bring our vision to life, creating a completely bespoke site.

Kensington Additive

From the outset, our journey with Wave stood in stark contrast to our previous experiences.

Mantell Associates

Working with [Wave Digital Project Manager] Dino and the rest of the Wave team to create our new Blusource website was a pleasure. They made what would normally be a painful experience, pain-free, by responding quickly to requests and amendments, providing useful suggestions, and communicating with us well and regularly on progress.

Bjorn Jones - Blusource

They were very easy to work with, understood the brief and even when we needed to make last minute or additional changes outside of the brief, they were very happy to accommodate us.

Very knowledgeable team and offered great insight and advice.
