“I felt well supported during the recruitment process and the onboarding process. Everything worked seamlessly and there was no concern at all. The support at beginning was also really good and it made settling down easier. ”

“I'm proud to be represented by Ambient People who are thoroughly professional and very well organised. Their sector knowledge combined with their rock solid integrity puts them firmly in the top tier of agencies. ”

“Ambient People offer a more friendly and personal approach to recruitment than other agencies; looking after individual interests and providing support and advice not only at the start of the recruitment process but throughout the placement.  ”

Farid

“The Ambient People team are strong, professional, personable, extremely knowledgeable and have established a fantastic recruitment business in a very short space of time. Very well respected and strong reputation. I'm proud to be working with you! Max has always communicated and kept me fully up to date. He supported my recruitment and appointment by fully understanding what I could bring to the role and having a great understanding of the organisation and individuals within it. ”

Debbie

“I can honestly say that Ambient People are completely outside the norm of recruitment companies. Max interviewed me with a genuine intention of wanting to understand my situation and what I was in search of. After our first chat, I was not left feeling like I was part of a numbers game and communication has since been easy, regular and honest throughout my assignment. Onboarding and internal processes of Ambient People are efficient and secure and I know the support will continue into the future. ”

Jennifer

“I have worked with Liam and the team at Ambient People for almost two years now and am very pleased to have been able to do so. They are always keen to ensure that I am appropriately placed in assignments for which my skills and experience are ideally matched. I don’t underestimate how difficult it is to do all this, particularly given the large number of client contacts that they deal with on a day-to-day basis, and I will certainly be looking to continue my relationship with Ambient People long into the future. ”

Paul

“Regarding my last contract arranged by Ambient, it was my first move into the contract market and so I was very grateful for the time ambient took to answer all my questions on how the temporary contract market works. The agency provided me with all the information I needed to make the right choices such as type of umbrella company to use, impact of IR35, pensions etc. They also ensured my onboarding with the client was as smooth as possible. ”

Alex

“Ambient People made the recruitment process really simple, quick and straightforward achieved through face-to-face meetings and regular conversations not just from Liam, but from the whole team who were aware of my situation. Andy was on hand to discuss my role throughout the assignment and the social event was a great opportunity to meet the whole team. ”

Nishil

“I joined Ambient People on the recommendation of a friend who was with another agency but had worked with Liam and said he was her preferred agent to work with. The recommendation proved to be correct. My transition from permanent worker to contract worker went very smoothly and if I have had any problems with the admin side of things Liam and his team are always prompt to respond and resolve my queries. ”

Values and Principles

We picked these values carefully. They speak to who we are, what we care about, and what we are striving to be.

Take responsibility

We are supposed to be the expert on the hiring journey, so we have to own it – whether it goes right or wrong.

Earn trust

Networks thrive on trust; it’s hard earned, and easily lost.

Seek Improvement

Our willingness to learn is the difference between where we are now, and the potential we have.

Drive Success

Results matter. We are an ambitious lot, and we’re OK with that.

Finally, we’ve got one more guiding principle. It is born from how we want to treat people, and to balance confidence with humility.

respect everyone + back yourself
