I've just moved jobs with the help of kemp recruitment, this was my first experience of using a recruitment agency so I didn't really know what to expect id heard stories of other people's experiences with various recruiters so i will admit i was wary. But Jamie was phenomenal from start to finish really friendly really helpful and actually seemed to give a damn which was nice.

Hopefully I wont be on the job search again any time soon but if I am ill definitely drop her a message first after this experience.

There was an issue, however the matter has been resolved by the Operations manager Sam and the rest of the staff, including Matt. Very happy with the results. Looks like there was a lack of communication between A staff memberhowever everything has been resolved. Natalie, my first contact with the company was very lovely and professional. The operations manager has been really lovely and professional with me.

Anja gets my vote for most professional and proficient agency staff of 2025!
Forget these other agencies!

Anja called me within half an hour and went through everything in a proficient manor that left me with no questions.

I dealt with a lady called anja and from the first time I spoke with her it felt like I had known her for years and we were talking like best friends would, but besides that I was completely relaxed the way she was so professional with me and I was so happy with everything she said and did for me. Not only has she got me a good job but she has made it clear that I can always ring her if I ever need anything. Fantastic performance of anja and kemp recruitment. Thank you so much
