Most recruiters just want to get to know you just enough to try and showcase you to their clients. Concept Personnel (CP) got to know me not only professionally but also made sure I felt like they cared about both my job hunt and the clients' needs. Even with tricky Covid situations, CP got me thought it and got me the dream job I've always wanted. Great company and great team running it!

Jo has helped me gain my first developer role out of university. She is the first recruiter I have spoken with who has a genuine interest in her clients and finding the most suitable position, which was clear from our initial phone call all the way through to receiving a job offer. She is knowledgable of the tech industry and very approachable. I would definitely recommend using Concept Personnel. Thanks again, Jo!

Working with Stephanie Relph was an absolute delight, every step of the way I felt supported, fully briefed with what was happening. Steph made the whole process so easy and enjoyable, that’s not something you hear when looking for a new role! Her professionalism goes above and beyond I wouldn’t look for another role without speaking to Steph first. I couldn’t recommend her enough! Thank you!

I was delighted with the service from Jo and Erin at Concept Personnel. Jo quickly found a job for me that is the best I've come across. I would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a helpful and proactive recruitment agency.

I can't thank Erin enough for putting me forward for my current role. Having worked in a company which I was very unhappy in, for almost a year, my confidence was low and I felt like I had hit a dead end. Erin suggested this job for me and reassured me that I was suited for the role. She encouraged and supported me during the recruitment process and seemed genuinely excited when she called to say I had the job! Four months later and I absolutely LOVE my job - I have found my spark again and passion for my career which I had lost.

There's a great team at Concept who are very encouraging and really understand you and what you are looking for in a job. They've given me confidence in my abilities and I have had the pleasure of working with them for a few years now - friendly, really helpful, always a quick response time; would definitely recommend.

Concept Personnel are absolutely amazing! I got a phone call not long after i signed up on the website with two interview opportunities. One of which progressed into full time employment. Without these guys i wouldn't have landed this fantastic job. I was given solid advice for my interviews and felt like they really cared. Couldn't have done it without Concept!

In my recent job hunt I signed up with a number of recruitment companies. Concept was far and away the best one. I worked with Jo, she was extremely personable, it was always a pleasure to chat with her on the phone and via email. She offered excellent advice for interviews. Even after accepting the job she has continued to be extremely helpful. In short I can't recommend concept enough, it was a great experience, and made an otherwise potentially stressful job hunt much more pleasurable

When I first started out as a graphic designer Steph gave me invaluable advise on what I needed to do to get started and what to do if I wanted to work in an agency in future. After three years of freelance work I went back to Concept and Erin helped me get my first agency job! Which I love! They were fantastic! I can't recommend them enough, and they were always on hand with honest and helpful advise about what I needed to do going forward.

My experience with Concept Personnel has been great and speaking direct with Managing Director, Jo has been a valuable experience. Jo was super helpful in the recruitment process, giving me tips for the interview and always on hand to answer any queries I had. If you are looking for a recruitment agency who knows what they are talking about when it comes to all things Design & Digital, be sure to speak to the Concept Personnel team!
