★★★★★
I have been working with Konvergent for 18 months to date as a consultant. The team of Konvergent Associates I work with are skilled, competent, capable and reliable. The organisation itself is well-run and highly considered by its clients. This is primarily because of the expertise it has at its disposal, and part of this is due to the way it engages with its Associates. There is always due consideration for the circumstances of people that work with them and the recent lockdowns are testament to this, ensuring flexibility in our engagements where necessary as self-employed consultants. Our team has all maintained our engagements through this time and I have always had my invoices paid promptly.

We're an IT MSP and have worked with Konvergent on many occasions supporting with different customers/architecture requirements. We count them as a partner. I originally worked with them as a contractor and their direction, honesty and way of working helped build us forward.
They always put their customer first and aim to get requirements delivered in the best manner possible. Payment terms have always been excellent, as has data security (we've delivered some sensitive projects in this respect).

I have been engaged with Konvergent for a reasonable period of time now. Payments have always been on time and queries whether regarding my managed service or other aspects have always been answered promptly. Konvergent provides that personal touch to both it's clients and the service providers it works with.

Having worked with Konvergent for some nine months now, I have been greatly impressed with the calibre of consultants and the organisational structure here which is totally focussed on delivering the very best solution to their clients. They have pulled out all the stops to expedite any road blocks for me and it can be seen that they have complete implicit trust from the client.

Ben has helped me on both sides of the recruitment business. He was the recruitment agent that placed me at Royal Mail, and since then he has provided good quality candidates for both permanent and contractor vacancies in my team. What impresses me most about Ben, and the reason he is the only agent that I have written a recommendation for, is his attitude and knowledge. Ben wants to do the right thing by his candidates and clients, and takes an interest in their requirements. He also has great knowledge of the enterprise architecture and data business. I would happily recommend Ben for clients and candidates alike.

I've known Ben for years and he has both found me a job and recruited for me. He is one of the few recruitment consultants I have come across who understands IT architecture. He is able to look at candidates from both technical and professional viewpoints, across roles ranging from junior architects to senior enterprise level.

Ben is a rare breed in recruitment in the fact that he really does understand Architecture and Strategy. The people he placed at RSA were all exceptional candidates which was due to him doing the initial interviewing and filtering. I worked for Ben's agency (for 2 1/2 years) and very pleased to say he promptly paid all invoices within 5 days of submission.

I've known Ben since 2016, a pleasure to work for as an associate. He knows what he wants, cut's through the treacle as they say and will definitely tell you what he doesn't want. Which is exactly what you need.
His understanding of Architecture, recruiting the right talent for the right role is a testament to architecture recruitment, which we all know is not one of the most easiest of disciplines to recruit for! He's at Gartner on a regular basis, and the architecture networking evening events - the latest "The value and effectiveness of Architecture 2023" speaks for itself in terms of understanding the role architecture plays for any given organisation.
The move into providing dedicated software to help communicate "Architectural Roadmaps" is a testament to Ben in appreciating the specific need and limitation of such key capabilities in the market. Good luck in the new venture and many thanks for giving me the opportunity to work with the Konvergent team.
