“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 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. ”

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
