In legal recruitment we vet for SRA/CILEX qualification, references and right to work.

Yes — a good agency shortens time-to-hire by working from a pre-vetted candidate network and screening against your brief, which is especially valuable for hard-to-fill or specialist roles.
Payment comes from the employer on a successful placement; jobseekers pay nothing.
For temp and contract staff, agencies charge an hourly rate that covers the worker's pay plus a margin for employment costs and service. We confirm the exact rate before the assignment starts.
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.
