“This was my first time entering the interim market and I can say that Ambient People have always listened extremely well and do their best to present roles to me that really fit what I'm after, more so than other agencies in the market. They build great relationships, are all individuals I trust, and I feel I can be open and honest with Ambient People. ”
“I had a pleasant experience working with the Ambient People team. Josh was really helpful throughout the whole process and provided me with the suppose and information needed. He was always available and supportive, making sure the whole process ran smoothly. ”
“Following a redundancy, Ambient People helped me secure my first interim position, initially for 3 months but 8 months later and an extension further, I’m still in that same position. They were extremely helping and engaging, going that extra mile to explain how the agency market works, exploring options and providing helpful advice. I’ve felt supported throughout my assignment and would have no hesitation in recommending them. ”
“I have had the pleasure working with Liam as both a client and an interim for the last 3 years. The service that Ambient People and Liam in particular have provided has been excellent. He has a very good understanding of the local authority sector and is well connected with decision makers in many councils. ”
“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.”
“I joined Ambient Peoples Service almost a year ago and I have never looked back in terms of getting interim jobs with them. They have been very supportive through my interim roles and been quick to find me new positions when my previous roles have come to an end. ”
“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. ”
“Having Ambient People as my recruitment agent is like having that close friend you can always depend on. They have a genuine interest in what I want to achieve; when I have a dilemma their advice is based on what is right for me, not them; no issue I have is too big or too small; and the relationship I have with the Ambient People team makes me feel extremely valued. ”
“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. ”
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
