“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. ”
“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. ”
“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. ”
“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. ”
“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. ”
“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. ”
“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. ”
“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 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. ”
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
