After reviewing and speaking with several recruitment agencies who claim to specialise in children’s social care, we came across SN Recruitment.

We were genuinely impressed by the difference in the model that Sam Naseer has built to support Directors and providers in recruiting for children’s homes, especially when compared to the industry standard of 8–15% fees and often unfavourable rebate terms.

Following further research into SN Recruitment and speaking with others who had previously worked with Sam, it became an easy decision for us to appoint SN Recruitment as our preferred recruitment partner.

Whether we are recruiting Registered Managers, Deputy Managers, Team Leaders, or Support Workers, Sam and SN Recruitment are now our go-to partner for all of our hiring needs.

I would highly recommend Sam Naseer and SN Recruitment Ltd to any children’s residential care provider looking to recruit key leadership roles.

As a new provider, we were struggling with expensive recruitment agency fees, and despite paying premium prices, it was taking far too long to fill our vacancies. We reached out to Sam, and within just a few weeks he had successfully sourced us a Registered Manager and a Responsible Individual. We now also have a Deputy Manager lined up, all within a remarkably short timeframe.

What really sets SN Recruitment apart is their service, speed and value for money. Their 12-month replacement guarantee gives real peace of mind, and at just £2,000 per placement, it’s exceptional value compared to traditional recruitment agencies.

Sam kept us informed throughout the process, understood exactly what we needed and only introduced high-quality candidates.

If you’re recruiting for children’s residential homes, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sam and the team at SN Recruitment Ltd. Their service has been outstanding, and we’ll certainly be using them again.

I am in the process of opening a children’s home and I have been searching for a reliable consultant to get me the right individuals. Sam was recommended by another director who was successful with Sam.

From the get go Sam knew what was needed, he went above and beyond to ensure the right candidates were needed for myself. Given his expertise in this field, I can say with confidence Sam has the right resources, relationships and team when it comes to finding you the candidate.

Given the national shortage of RM, Sam secured me one within a timely manner which was a surprise. Sam’s communication was second to none, no matter the day or time he was always available and supported me throughout.

I do feel Sam has underpriced himself as you’re getting gold for the price of silver! If you want transparency, reliability and results then Sam is the guy!

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sam on a number of occasions, both in finding staff for our business and in helping me find opportunities for myself. Throughout every interaction, Sam has been professional, approachable, and genuinely committed to finding the right fit rather than simply filling a vacancy.

His communication is excellent, he’s proactive, and he takes the time to understand exactly what’s needed from both the employer’s and candidate’s perspective. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sam to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy recruitment professional.

I have worked with Sam and SN Recruitment across more than 30 providers who were looking for Responsible Individuals and Registered Managers.

As a consultant, I support providers with opening homes, compliance and Ofsted registration. One of the biggest challenges my clients face is finding the right RI and RM. Sam has made this part of my work so much easier.

The reassurance of having suitable candidates, along with the guarantee of rehiring if someone leaves, gives both me and my clients real peace of mind. It supports the registration journey and helps providers feel confident they have the right people in place.

Over the last year, working with Sam and SN Recruitment has been nothing but a pleasure. Sam is honest, transparent and easy to speak to, even when interviews do not go as planned. We have been able to be honest with one another — no awkward “selling” of candidates. He has consistently provided fantastic RIs and RMs across the organisations I support.

I also had the opportunity to experience SN Recruitment from the other side, as a candidate. I never thought I would be looking for a new role myself, but Sam secured me an interview within 24 hours and helped me land a position within three days. The role aligned with my ethics and values, and I joined the organisation within the same week.

Having now experienced SN Recruitment both as someone sourcing candidates and as a candidate myself, I can honestly say they are efficient, effective and genuinely person centred. They care about finding the right people for providers, but they also look after the candidates they represent.

I would not go anywhere else for recruitment or employment support. I know I have a trusted partner by my side in Sam and SN Recruitment.

I am very pleased to recommend Sam Naseer of SN Recruitment for his outstanding recruitment support to our children’s home.

Sam has played an important role in helping us strengthen our leadership and professional team. He has successfully supported us in recruiting Registered Managers and Responsible Individuals, and he is currently supporting us with the recruitment of a Therapist as part of our ongoing professional development and service provision.

One of Sam’s greatest strengths is his timeliness and responsiveness. He works exceptionally hard and goes above and beyond to meet the needs of his clients. Sam is available round the clock, and whenever we communicate with him, he responds promptly and professionally. His commitment and dedication have made a significant difference, particularly when we have needed to recruit key personnel within tight timescales.

We have worked with recruitment agencies in the past that charge between 10–15%, and the candidate leaves within four months of employment without receiving any rebate.

Sam understands the importance of recruiting the right people for children’s residential care. He appreciates that positions such as Registered Manager and Responsible Individual require individuals with the right experience, values, leadership qualities and understanding of safeguarding and the regulatory requirements within children’s social care.

We have found Sam to be reliable, professional, proactive and committed. He listens to our requirements, responds quickly to feedback and works diligently to identify suitable candidates. His continued support has given us confidence that our recruitment needs are being handled with care and professionalism.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Sam Naseer and SN Recruitment to other Ofsted-registered children’s homes and organisations within the children’s social care sector. Sam is a dedicated recruitment professional who genuinely goes the extra mile for his clients, and we have been very pleased with the service and support he has provided to us.

We are grateful for his continued support and look forward to working with him as our service develops.

Sam is one of the best agents in the industry. He’s so dedicated, no matter whether it’s 10am or 10pm, you can always count on a response.

He has clear communication and has been supportive. He always tries to fill vacancies I bring to him.

This is a great agency!

I highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for employment. From the very beginning, they took the time to get to know me, understand my skills, experience, and what I was looking for in a role. Their communication was excellent throughout the process, keeping me updated every step of the way and always being available to answer any questions.

Thanks to their professionalism and dedication, they matched me with a job that was a great fit. They genuinely care about the people they work with and go above and beyond to provide support before, during, and after placement. I am very grateful for everything they did and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive recruitment agency.

Sam provided an excellent service.

Extremely attentive even after the recruitment process and continually checks in.

It was very smooth to work with Sam and you can tell he really cares about the service he provides.

Working with SN Recruitment has been great from the beginning. I’ve worked with dozens of recruitment teams and none have compared to this service. SN Recruitment not only support the candidate but also the employer throughout the service. I believe a key part of this is through the trust and honesty shown by Sam, which for sure is needed more of in this industry, especially when recruiting for the right person for our young people.

I highly recommend Sam for his professional and reliable recruitment services. He consistently delivers quality candidates, communicates well, and makes the hiring process smooth and efficient.

Sam has been very helpful in our organisation’s recruitment process.

I do recommend SN Recruitment anytime.
