About Us

We’re a well-established temporary and permanent recruitment business which has been quietly growing for the past 17 years. The business is led by Charles Pascall, Paul Finney and Adrian Badea. We value the importance of ethical recruitment and strong people relationships, recognising that ‘doing the right thing’ leads to mutual loyalty and low labour turnover. 

 We know the importance of having positive relationships with our clients. The way we achieve this is by focussing on the things that matter to them, with our focus on four key areas;

Ethical &
Legal Compliance

The fair and safe treatment of people is key to success in both your and our business. We work with one of the most experienced Compliance people in the food industry whose most recently roles were as HR Director at Karro Food Group and before that with Cadbury. Our compliance processes meet BRC, ETI and SEDEX audit standards. Unlike other agencies, all our recruiters all have extensive training in employment law, right-to-work checks, modern day slavery and equal opportunities.

Attendance &
Labour Fulfilment

We have established two way relationships with our candidates, resulting in them delivering for us, just as we deliver for them. Most of our workers work full-time hours in our clients but others, due to home commitments need flexibility which is great for our clients with irregular work and tight budgets because they only pay for workers when they need them. We balance workers hours with additional work with other local clients, ensuring our workers have the hours they need to meet their needs.

Competitive
Pricing

We’re all too-aware of the financial pressures that businesses are under, particularly with the government increases in employment costs coming into effect from April. We’re keen to partner with new clients, and whilst our service provision is our biggest offer, we will also price competitively.

If you arrange to meet with us, you won’t end up with someone from the sales team, because we don’t have one! You’ll only ever meet with a recruiter who won’t talk nonsense. We just listen to your needs, answer your questions honestly and will tell you what we can do for you.

Our team is ready to help, no matter how big or small your requirements are.

We can offer high volume temporary workforce supply with an onsite provision, a local branch-based team, or a combination of the two if you have multiple operations, or resourcing for permanent workers – just let us know what you need.

Don’t take our word for how good we are.  Getting the right agency is important……

We’re happy to put you in contact with our existing clients and let our performance do the talking.
