There are literally thousands of recruitment and staffing agencies across the UK that will match you to a job if you have the skills that an employer is looking for.
To find a recruitment agency near you (the database is searchable across more than 60 industry sectors), click here.
Recruitment agencies must meet certain legal standards in the way they work with you in terms of giving you information on the type of work you will be doing and detailing how much you will be paid and hours worked. More information can be found here.
Some agencies will give you training to make sure that you have the skills you need to get the jobs available. Agencies also often offer temporary jobs as well as permanent or full-time jobs. A temporary job could help you get back into full-time work if you have not worked for many years or you do not have recent work experience.
The Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC) is the professional body for the recruitment industry.
