Cally is amazing! I can’t speak highly enough of her and her approach to recruitment. Cally is far from the stereo typical recruitment consultant. She is genuine, honest, and passionate about meeting her clients needs on both sides. She took the time to understood me as a person and what I was looking for in my next role. Then found me the perfect role. She was always on hand if I had any questions and always demonstrated integrity, professionalism and genuinely cares about her clients and doing what’s right. I would highly recommend Cally!!

Working with Balance is always an exceptional experience. At HumanOS, we only partner with organisations who share our values, our integrity, and our commitment to meaningful impact, and Balance exemplifies this. They bring a world-class, people-first approach to talent and culture, and their dedication to creating environments where individuals genuinely thrive makes every collaboration seamless and deeply impactful. Together, we’ve supported Balance’s customers and placements through HumanOS coaching, wellbeing, and performance services, ensuring they receive high-quality, personalised support that drives real behavioural change and measurable improvements across wellbeing, engagement, and performance. Most recently, we partnered on an event in Bristol focused on building sustainable high-performance cultures, and once again the alignment between our missions was clear from the outset. When Balance’s strategic expertise meets HumanOS’s evidence-based coaching and behaviour-change methodology, organisations gain a truly future-ready pathway to building resilient, high-performing teams that thrive in the real world.

Cally was so good. She is the best among the other recruiters I have seen before. She was so friendly and helpful in arranging the Interviews and in providing feedback. She found me a job at Accurise. Just a perfect job that I was looking for. I already Cally's contact to few of my friends already. I will definitely recommend Cally to anyone who is open for opportunities. Excited to work more with you at Accurise!!

Working with Cally-Marie Burgess at Balance has been nothing short of incredible. She has a genuine understanding of the value of great culture and true work-life balance—and it shines through in everything she does. If you’re looking for a recruitment experience that feels refreshingly different, personal, and focused on you, I can’t recommend her enough. Cally truly cares about finding the right fit for YOU, and it shows! ❤️

Cally is passionate, genuine great fun to work with. I have worked with her as a coach, mentor and business associate, both in agency recruitment and now with her own business Balanced Hiring. She is building something unique and filling much needed void in the industry. Her clients value and respect her highly.

Cally was fantastic, she worked with me to design a new team as finance was expanding. Cally was meticulous in her approach really spending time to know what was required and matching me with some excellent candidates! The impact of the new team was immediate delivering results straight away!

From the moment I contacted Cally from Balanced demonstrated a keen understanding of my career goals and aspirations. The initial consultation was thorough, during which they took the time to truly understand my strengths, skills, and preferences. This attention to detail assured me that I was in capable hands.
