“Working with the team at Ambient has been a tremendous experience. As you'd expect, they are open and approachable, but on top of that, they are keen to fully understand you as a candidate and what you want in that next role. They don't try to shoehorn you into a role that isn't right for you. I want to mention the parties as well - they are legendary. ”
“Ambient People has been extremely supportive of me in achieving my goal of returning to working in the Public Sector again, after having left the previous authority nearly ten years ago. I will ever be very grateful for their help and support and to Max for boosting my confidence in securing the first role. ”
“The team at Ambient People have been excellent from start to finish with both my current and former interim assignments. Most importantly they ensured that the fit between me and the organisation was right. They have taken the time to get to know me, my personality, strengths and work preferences, and were also able to provide me with a good overview of the organisation and the hiring manager. Ambient People will always be my agency of choice. ”
“Ambient People has consistently gone above and beyond in their support. From day one, Andy has been an invaluable resource, offering guidance and assistance that made every step of my journey smooth and stress-free. Their commitment to my success was evident in every interaction, and it significantly contributed to a positive and productive experience. The general contact and engagement with Ambient People has been outstanding. The responsiveness and professionalism displayed, especially by Andy, has made it easy to address any concerns or needs that arose. ”
“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. ”
“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. ”
“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. ”
“Great experience! Ambient People are wonderful to work for, they are professional and very supportive. They take the time to ensure that the organisation and interim are the right match for a good work experience. ”
“I am grateful for all the support and help from Josh in securing my first interim position. From start to finish, Josh has been amazing in making the recruitment process as smooth as possible by always being available and keeping me updated. He helped me with interview prep, negotiating the offer and through all the compliance checks. I would highly recommend Josh and Ambient People.”
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
