We have an eye for talent

About

Rilwood Associates is a nationwide executive recruitment company with its head office in Leeds,West Yorkshire.  We are part of a privately owned group with a multimillion turnover, one of the largest independent recruitment businesses in the country.  We know the secret of our success lies in the continued development of our people.  

Rilwood was established in 2003 by two successful and experienced recruitment managers, Ben Riley and Wayne Underwood.  They envisaged a professional recruitment consultancy which was focused on its employees and committed to providing a truly consultative service. 

The realisation of this vision saw Rilwood expand into larger offices in 2004, and continue to grow quickly over the following two years.  New divisions were set up, including a very successful FMCG division and a training service. 

At the end of 2006 the business moved to the current office, with capacity for 100 people.  Today, in addition to Leeds, we also have offices in London, Leicester and Halifax.  We operate across seven defined markets, in which we have built an enviable reputation for delivering results. 

Through our total dedication to client satisfaction, we have successfully placed 4,000 candidates.  

Whilst proud of past achievements, we remain ambitious to improve and grow further, and cement our position as the market leader in our field.  By offering a fantastic level of service and providing a great environment for the people who work for us, we aim to continue to be the recruitment partner of choice.
