Questions, answered
How much do recruitment agencies charge?

You pay a placement percentage for permanent roles or an hourly rate for contract staff, with no hidden fees.

Why use a recruitment agency?

Use an agency to reach vetted candidates faster — including passive ones not actively applying — and to offload sourcing, screening, reference-checking and coordination so you just pick. You get a vetted shortlist in 7 days or you don't pay a cent, with every placement backed by a 90-day guarantee.

Do recruitment agencies take a cut of your salary?

No — the agency's fee is paid by the employer and is separate from your salary. For permanent roles you receive your full agreed wage; the placement fee doesn't come out of it.

Do recruitment agencies need a licence in the UK?

Permanent placement is a licensing-exempt activity in the UK — we lead with REC membership and structured candidate vetting (skills, references and right-to-work checks). Crew Mentors operates under the Conduct of Employment Agencies and Employment Businesses Regulations 2003, enforced by the Fair Work Agency. Worker supply into regulated sectors (agriculture, horticulture, shellfish and associated food processing) is covered by a GLAA licence.
