“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. ”
“I was recommended Ambient People by a work colleague in sourcing my first interim assignment in local authority finance, and I can confirm they have proven to be everything and more than you would want from a professional recruitment agency. They have been a critical friend, sharing my journey. Overall, I am very pleased with the support and service and will be looking to Ambient in securing my next contract.”

“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.

“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.

Ambient People will always be my agency of choice. ”

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
