Recruitment Agencies Poole — REC-Backed Hires

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.

Open to the specific recruiter if you can, name the role or field you're after, and summarise your relevant experience briefly.

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.

Agencies are paid by the hiring company: a placement fee for permanent roles or an hourly margin for contract work.

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.
