Questions, answered
Why use a recruitment agency?

An agency saves time, taps a wider candidate pool, and lets you choose from a pre-vetted shortlist.

How do recruitment agencies work in the UK?

In the UK, agencies place candidates into permanent roles and supply temp and contract workers. Permanent placement is a licensing-exempt activity; agencies are regulated by the Conduct Regulations 2003 (enforced by the Fair Work Agency), and worker supply into regulated sectors such as agriculture or food processing needs a GLAA licence.

What does a recruitment agency do?

A recruitment agency sources, screens and places candidates into roles for employers — for permanent hires, and for temp or contract assignments.

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.
