We are a group of recruiters building a network of talent to help Local Government thrive, by connecting people to opportunities where they can thrive themselves.

“Ambient People were exactly what I wanted and needed from an agency when venturing into the interim market for the first time; pragmatic, professional, knowledgeable, genuinely friendly and (most importantly to me) honest- a refreshing approach with a great ethos and upheld values. ”

Dom

“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. ”

Andy

“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

“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 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

“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. ”

Jon

“I have been working through Ambient People for about 18 months and in that time I have been able to contact them and when I do I get a response back very quickly and nothing I ask (as a first time worker through an agency) has been too much trouble and any issues resolved by the end of the day. I am very happy to be part of their community. ”

Andrew

“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.  ”

Toyin

“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. ”

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
