BAT European SAP COE Manager
"Portland have helped BAT finding people for SAP projects and support.
What we liked in the approach in all cases was:
* quick and adequate response
* translation of our needs into the right CV's; flexible to changes in our needs
* honest to the candidate; they came in with the right expectations on type of work, salary and type of company
* NO annoying phone calls at inconvenient times to push things, which is what is NOT appreciated in other agencies."

SAP OTC Consultant, Australia
"Portland contacted me in February regarding an OTC consultant role in Sydney.
They co-ordinated telephone interviews for me over three time zones with several high level executives from
the client. Within two weeks I had an offer on the table. Portland gave me some valuable advice on setting
up my company and streamlined all admin associated with being an overseas consultant. Portland have
successfully renewed my contract several times since. I'm very grateful for their ongoing support, they are
always there when you need them! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Portland to friends and colleagues."

very reliable and honest to the consultants and offer me all the support I need, something that brings me
the stability needed to keep focus on my projects. I would have no hesitation in recommending Portland

SAP Senior Finance and Insurance Specialist, Brazil
"I have worked with Portland twice in the past and things went so well that
nowadays I keep in touch with everyone there regularly. I am actually a friend of several staff members there
as a result of their personable service. Dealing with Portland is quick and easy and they are extremely
reliable. They are not one of those companies that keep bothering you with thousands of opportunities. They
will contact you only when, the opportunity seems to be perfectly suited to your experience and needs. I
recommend doing business with Portland."
CIO
"It is a pleasure to write a recommendation on behalf of Portland Resourcing.
I have had the pleasure of overseeing the work of their Change Management Resource on transformational
programs designed around the deployment of SAP. At Federal Mogul (automotive parts company based in Southfield,
Michigan) their resource joined the SAP initiative called Program Everest as the Global Change Manager.
Portland’s resource joined the corporate directed initiatives mid-stream and in a very complex organization
- company situation. In the case of Federal-Mogul it was a company exiting bankruptcy. The IT (SAP)
initiatives were seen as windows of opportunity to drive globalization of the company, with standardization
of business processes and ubiquitous access of information systems tools across the company. The challenge
in this company, as in many with transformational ERP programs, is a high level executive desire to achieve
cost savings and synergies through the technology change but the classic hurdles and resistance of operational
units and geographies to have any change in their paradigm. I am a big fan of Portland Resourcing’s work
and have appreciated the high quality output of the Change Management resource they placed, especially in
periods of great organization and company change."

"Having been a client of Portland Resourcing since July 2007 and
recruited 35+ specialist SAP and Change Management contractors in that period I can certainly vouch for
their excellence in identifying difficult-to-find candidates and following through with perfect vetting
tailored per client. They are also very respectful of the client's time constraints and offer a tremendous,
and ongoing, service to their contractors. In allocating a primary contact for the J&J business they provide
great comfort in prioritising your business each and every time. I recommend every potential client to
afford them the time to learn your business which will allow them to be proactive in building candidate
benches best suited to your specialism should you require to reach out to them with a requirement."

Resourcing have exceeded my expectations in all these areas. They stand out from their competition because
they are specialists in SAP recruitment who truly understand what Change Management is about and how it
leads to a successful implementation. 4 out of my last 6 assignments have been through Portland and I have
always been totally satisfied with the service and support I receive whilst working through their organisation.
If I have a question or concern, it is addressed promptly and professionally. I value the honesty and integrity
of the team and the relationships I have formed with them over the years."
Seasoned Business Transformation & Change Management Lead
"I would highly recommend Portland Resourcing for Organisations seeking
qualified staff or for Professionals seeking permanent or contract opportunities. My experience of Portland
- from a recruiter and contractor perspective - is that Portland goes the extra mile to understand the real
requirements from both an employer and employee side, so as to ensure a qualified match. This saves time,
money and frustration on all sides. You think many do this... but in my experience they don't, with many
Recruiters in the market having become complacent and/or simply lazy.
I have found Portland to be committed in building strong lasting relationships; they ask relevant questions
and listen well. Well done Portland... strong leadership and capable staff on the ground with the right
attitude."
Senior Change Manager, London
"I have worked with Portland Resourcing for more than six years now.
What stood out throughout these years was the consistent professionalism of all the people I have dealt
with, the very targeted, well articulated and clearly defined choice of contract offers I have been
approached with. Both as a contractor and ultimately in my role as a manager, I could always depend on my
dedicated account team to deliver the highest quality of service. I also felt very special, as I have dealt
with people, with whom I have built a trusting, human and fun relationship. The combination of all the above
have lead to an extremely fruitful career, not just for myself, but all the other colleagues I have hired or
referred to work with my favourite recruiters. I look forward to the next six years of co-operation."
