Firstly i would like to say I could not recommend Alice Scott at Handle enough, she is absolutely amazing. My experience has been a complete pleasure from the start. She is friendly and efficient, she has kept me informed throughout the process and always there when i need advice. I would say this is the most professional recruitment experience I have had. Her feedback and consistent communication definitely shows she knows what she is doing, Handle recruitment is definitely one of the best agencies, without a doubt.Thank you so much. :)

I could not recommend Alice Scott at Handle highly enough. My experience has been a complete pleasure from start to finish. She is friendly and efficient and has kept me informed throughout the process. I would say this is the most professional recruitment experience I have had. Her feedback and consistent communication definitely shows she knows what she is doing. With Alice's help, I ended my 2020 with some great news by landing a very exciting new role! Thank you so much. :)

Highly recommend Handle Recruitment. Incredibly nice staff, I worked with Steph, she was very kind and understanding. She managed to find me a role within a week or so. Everything from contract to pay was set up so quickly and easily.

Handle is the best agency I registered with since I returned to the UK and I met with quite a few recruiters on my job search. They saw my potential and they worked hard to put me in front of some really good clients. Tom Chadwick and Ryan Burrows at Handle are experienced recruiters who have tons of connections in the media and music industries. The service was personalized and they deliver the results. Thanks!

5* first experience with Handle!! Everyone was very helpful when I went to their very professional offices but special mention to Alice Scott for being particularly wonderful and amazing at her job. Not only is she incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, she supports each step of the way by providing interview answer techniques, guidance, advice and provides instant communication and feedback with good news. Alice helped me secure my desired job in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic and hiring freeze, and I would recommend her, and Handle recruitment to anybody! Thank you so much!!

P. G.

I am super grateful for joining Handle and working with such dedicated people. For me Handle recruitment means my recruiter, Sophia. She was caring and understood what I needed from the beginning, always staying in touch, I never felt ignored. I haven’t been out of work since I started with them more than 3 months ago. I’ve been booked from day 1 and had the opportunity to work for amazing companies so I can say no new assignment is ever the same. Also, payroll team is very helpful and always replied within a day. Overall I believe this is the best recruitment agency I’ve worked with, and believe me I’ve tried a lot of them in London. Handle is simply on top of their game!

S. A.

Handle were incredibly helpful from the moment I met with them. They took the time to understand what I was looking for rather than presenting me with just any role that wouldn’t have been suitable. I was eventually able to land a position at my dream company! I worked most closely with Sara and Sophia and they were nothing short of amazing. They were super friendly and really made me feel as though they cared which is not typical from my experiences working with other recruiters. It’s been great working with handle. Whether you’re looking for some temp work, to launch a career in a field you’re passionate about or a career change - I highly recommend them!

J. D.

My first experience of working with Handle has been nothing short of amazing! Having taken my career history and future goals into consideration Hannah and Andrea sourced me the ideal temporary role that perfectly matched my skillset. Having been in the role for a week I was made a permanent offer which Handle negotiated on my behalf. The staff are always a pleasure to speak with and payments are always on-time. A great experience and would certainly recommend Handle recruitment to others.

R. M.

I had a great experience with Handle ! Alice is supportive, professional and very helpful. She went above and beyond to provide the guidance I needed throughout the process. Communication was consistent, I felt my needs and requirements were heard and met. I cannot recommend Alice and Handle highly enough and I'm happy to have found a great role. Thank you so much !

L. W.

Genuinely can say Handle have been the best agency I have worked with. I joined with the idea of using my previous marketing experience to venture into a new industry and after registering and speaking with Hannah Symes, I was placed into a temporary two week assignment the next day. I ended up being extended at that placement for two months and Hannah has now placed me in a permanent role that fit my exact requirements when I met her a few months ago. Hannah's knowledge of the industry combined with her genuine interest in my career development has been invaluable and I would recommend anyone to work with both her and Handle.

G. F. Y.

Excellent recruitment company! I registered with Handle recruitment on a day and got a job offer (Temp role) on the next day. I met with Sam who went through my CV and asked me to describe my experience. She then showed me a brief description of some of the roles that her team and herself were recruiting for. I spoke to her other colleagues dealing with temp and perm roles and they were all very sweet and welcoming. Luckily I managed to get a temp role offer with Clive who is very nice and did his best to ensure that I get the job. Few minutes later, I spoke with Sophie who managed to book me for an interview for a permanent position just a day after I registered. I am impressed with the level of service and speed at which this company works. Will definitely recommend Handle Recruitment to anyone looking for their next role in the job market!

J. W.

Handle aren't like other recruiters - they don't throw you at every available role, instead they really try to understand where you want to work and match you up with employers who are looking for someone like you. My recruiter, Alice Scott, was super accommodating and flexible to help me, and the company she placed me with have a really high opinion of her. She was also supportive through every stage of the process, and could answer any questions I had. I've already recommended Handle to friends and would encourage anyone looking for a new job to send over their CV.

J. L.

I had an amazing experience with Handle! This was my second time with them and I have always received amazing career opportunities with exciting companies. Joanne and Dora have been absolutely amazing. They listened to what I was interested in and the direction I wanted to go into my career and was presented my dream job and have now been offered this position! I couldn’t be more Happier! I definitely recommend Handle to anyone who is looking for positions within the creative industry.

R. C.

I was first introduced to Handle last December, when I was seeking a career change. After getting lost in the Auction industry which I had lost my passion for, I turned to Handle for their expert advice. I applied for an Agents Assistants role, which was quickly followed up by Lauren Ions the next day. I was invited to come in for an Interview to meet Lauren face to face and she automatically made me feel welcome and at ease. We had an informal chat about my interests and career aspirations and I knew I was in good hands. I waited patiently for the right role to come up and I had faith that Lauren was also seeking this for me. Earlier this month, I had the pleasure of speaking with Lauren again and she presented me with my dream job working for an iconic Film company. I am now two days into my new job and certainly excited about my fabulous career and my new life. I couldn't have done it without Lauren's expertise and encouragement - thank you! I highly recommend Handle and their dedication and investment to each individual candidate - they are experts in the field!

K. S.

Handle have been wonderful. Lauren Ions secured me two great interviews within a week of speaking to her and helped me secure a position within two weeks. The companies I went up for were both fantastic fits for me. I felt like Lauren understood me, my personality, what I was looking for and where I would fit best from our very first conversation. She was so supportive and helpful throughout the whole process, always available and checking in regularly. I couldn't be more grateful!

C. M.

Leanne was so helpful in assisting me finding a contract for my last 12 months in London (I'm on a 2 year working visa). Leanne was very supportive leading up to interviews and following up with feedback. I found the whole process very smooth and easy. Similarly, this isn't my first contact with Handle, they have found my amazing roles at various companies that I have thoroughly enjoyed. I would highly recommend Leanne and the whole of the Handle team!

O. A.

Handle is a very efficient and professional company, Alice Scott is really kind and supportive. Had a great experience throughout the whole job seeking process and just got a very good job. Received updates and help every day. I totally recommend the company, they listen to you, get to know your goals and help you achieve them. Thank you Alice!!!

N. S.

I recently contacted Handle to look for a new role coming up to the end of my contract. Having dealt with Alice, Emerald and Jane, I can highly recommend them to anyone looking for a position within the music/media industry as they are well connected and get the best jobs. They are all very friendly and approachable and I found this experience of being with an agency very beneficial and would definitely use them again.

E. M.

I've had the pleasure of working with Handle as both a client and as a candidate. They are a very unique recruitment agency. They take time to understand you to the point where they feel like they are an extension of you / your business. Working with them feels like a partnership. Their culture and ethos is welcoming, friendly, energetic, relaxed yet professional. I honestly cannot recommend them enough!

R. R.

Handle, Handle, Handle. They are - hands down one of the best recruitment agency I have ever worked with. They are always on the ball, super supportive and last but not least – always well equipped with fantastic roles. I have worked with some AMAZING consultants in the team including Joe, Alice, Jordan & Emerald – all so amazing! I am so lucky to have crossed paths with Handle’s awesome bunch who always deliver and most importantly listen to the kind of roles that I have been after. My experience with them have always been 10/10. Thank you guys for the fantastic roles that you have helped me with over the years.

S. G.

I have dealt with many recruiters and agencies in the past both professionally and personally but Handle Recruitment and in particular Joe Duffy and Francesca O’Dwyer are the best in the industry. From the moment they got in contact with me, it’s been a brilliant journey. They are experts in their field and have managed to secure me my dream role working for the most amazing company. Thank you Handle Recruitment!

B. B.

I have had the most amazing experience with Handle all thanks to Vanessa! She is one of the best if not, THE BEST recruitment consultant I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She is extremely passionate, friendly and most importantly honest. I can’t thank her enough for helping me to change my career path and opening some amazing doors for me. Vanessa has gone the extra mile for me in so many ways and I can’t thank her enough! :)

z. e.

I think Handle deserves 5 starts without a doubt. Not only did they make me feel welcome and supported but the staff cared about me and finding the most suitable job. The team were so helpful and honest with me and gave me great advice about roles and salaries in London. They didn't waste any of my time or theirs and I never had to chase them up like other agencies. They even negotiated my salary and ended up getting me more than expected which was a bonus. Lauren and Charlotte were lovely ladies and I highly recommend them for anyone thinking about changing careers or just interested to see what is out there. I couldn't be happier in my new job and I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the Handle team. THANKS GUYS, YOU ARE AMAZING!!!

A. G.

My first point of contact at Handle was Sam Davies, whom I cannot fault at this point - Sam was friendly, professional and easy to speak to. From here, I dealt primarily with Ryan Burrows and Dora Hepworth - both consultants were extremely proactive in lining up interviews on my behalf and eventually assisting me in securing employment. For me personally, Handle has been the best agency I have worked with and I plan on expanding this relationship into the future.

P. R.

What an amazing company! Initial contact was from Alice who was really sweet and asked me to come in and register, she was really accommodating when I needed to reschedule my appointment. Upon arriving at their offices I was pleasantly surprised to see how many amazing companies they work with. Alice went over my CV and career goals with me, then I had a short meeting with Karl, who I’d spoken to earlier in the week, and he presented me with a dream role which fit my profile ideally. My registration session was last Friday and I have already been placed in a temp role starting Thursday! Really impressed with the turn around and looking forward to working with the company further.

S. D.

I had a wonderful experience with Handle! Recommended by a friend, I sent in my CV and was contacted the following day and went into their offices two days later. Everyone was very friendly! Natasha Uddin was the consultant that I spoke with and she was amazing. She had two job offers lined up for me by the end of our meeting! From my first temporary job placement, I landed a permanent position. Throughout the temporary placement, Natasha continued to check on how things were going and was just so wonderful and supportive. I would still be lost in the job hunt if it wasn't for Natasha! I had a great experience with Handle and have also recommended my friends.

T. K.

Honestly, a great recruitment company ! big than you to Jade Olanrewaju an absolute star, she really goes out of her way to ensure she is doing her best to find you that perfect role, also always remembers to check up on you to see how are you are doing. Lovely personality and is always rooting for you !

N. I.

Can't say enough amazing things about Handle Recruitment, especially Sara and Natasha in the temp division. I've had two very interesting assignments through them with major media companies. They really listen to your interests and try to match you with an environment where you can truly thrive. The lines of communication are always open and you feel like they care about making sure you're happy in your roles. Really amazing agency (the best in London in my experience so far) and I plan on working with them for the foreseeable future.

O. K.

I can't say enough nice things about Hannah and the team at Handle! From the very beginning she and her colleagues made the recruitment process easy and stress free. She put me at ease at every stage from our initial meeting, to interview prep and even following up after I had secured a position. I am now employed with a great company in a position that I absolutely love and I definitely have Hannah and the Handle team to thank for this! I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone!

C. B.

Handle have been absolutely wonderful to work with and really did find me my dream role. From the warm welcome in their stunning offices with Stephanie Goldfinch, to the interview preparation that Joe Duffy provided, I can not recommend either of these Consultants enough. Best Recruitment Agency in London by a mile.

C. W.

I cannot recommend Charlotte and the Handle team enough! From the very first phone call I felt like she was listening and showing genuine care for what I was looking for. Meeting Charlotte at the Handle office was incredibly valuable, as I felt like she really wanted to know the personality behind the CV as opposed to adding another number to the system. Charlotte sent me for my dream job, and my interviewers even commented on the amazing profile she put together - and said from that they were excited to meet me! Throughout the whole process I always felt Charlotte had the time and interest to take my calls with my feedback/thoughts, and always came across as genuinely interested! If you're looking for a new role, go with Handle, and always ask for Charlotte.

S. J.

Handle is one of the best recruitment companies I've worked with in London. They are so friendly and helpful, and actually listen to what you want, and find the jobs that are best suited to you. Refreshing to get this personal touch compared with all the big recruitment companies out there. Sophia Taylor in particular is an absolute gem - I'd recommend her to anyone!

S. S.

I registered with Handle back in 2012 and continue to work with them today because they have a friendly and trustworthy team who make the recruitment process an easy one! They have always listened which means I only ever receive roles that are suitable to my skill set. If you are looking for recruiters who have really fun and interesting clients and great roles to match, look no further.

s. u.

I registered with Handle after having very little luck received 2 interviews straight away and got offer in my first 2 weeks. I found them to be extremely professional as well as approachable. They were very supportive in making sure I got a good package and I'm nothing but grateful. I would definitely recommend Handle! Thank you Dora, Joanne, Becca and Ryan

A. C.

I am so impressed with Handle Recruitment's professionalism and drive to see you succeed. When i signed up with them, it was a smooth and relaxed process and i was receiving opportunities within the first week! I was able to secure an opportunity at a very large conglomerate company and would like to thank Sam, Dora and Andrew for their efforts on securing my next role - Anthony Reed

C. M.

I met Gill last October after applying for the Handle Recruitment mentoring scheme. She is very approachable, friendly and has a great way to engage with her clients. After an in depth explanation of the scheme, she introduced me to an ad-hoc mentor and in just a few months I gained more knowledge and I finally got the career breakthrough I have always wished for. Thanks for all your help Handle!

C. H.

So far, my experience with Handle has been fantastic! Anusha has been a wonderful point of contact and (unlike recruiters at other companies) really listens to what I am looking for rather than slotting me into any old role. In a sea of recruitment companies, I would highly recommend Handle for their genuine, personable approach.

E. G.

Can't recommend these guys enough, from my first interview with my recruiter Joe to securing myself a job with ASOS (wooo thanks Sophia and Joe). Extremely warm, friendly staff who are always willing to help- reply to emails extremely quickly and always more than happy to take your call. I was never out of work with these guys and Joe was very attentive in listening to the career path I wanted to take. Brilliant for both temp work and securing interviews for a large array of fantastic clients. Felt so at ease with Handle and you can tell they really do care about you. Thank you Handle!

B. O.

Can’t rate Handle recruitment high enough. My consultant Hannah was not only completely professional but really friendly and lovely and made me feel in the loop the whole way through the recruitment process. She landed me a temp job the day after our first meeting and then a contract in my dream role a week later. Not only that, they were jobs that weren’t actively being recruited- she used her own contacts to proactively source opportunities she thought would suit me. All in all a great experience. On a side note I loved that I could do all my paperwork online in advance instead of doing it on the day like most otber recruiters. 5 stars for sure:)

K. F. J.

I have had THE most incredible experience with this agency. I dealt with Hannah, who has been a complete gem throughout my entire journey. She found perfect roles, in reputable professional and creative companies that suited my abilities, pay expectations and experience level. I’m now happily placed in an awesome job, working in a game changing position. I cannot hank Hannah enough for her absolute attention to detail and for helping me make some big decisions in regards to my career and opportunities. I whole heartedly recommend this recruitment agency - and I completely endorse Hannah, her skills and her excellent communication throughout this entire process.

G. G.

I had the chance to work with Vanessa & Francesca at Handle HR & I can only attest to how positive it has been with my experience with Handle. Both of them kept in touch and considered me for roles as they became available, eventually providing me with an amazing opportunity within the loveliest team. A special mention also to the Handle Payroll team who has always been prompt in responding to queries and concerns. I would encourage everyone looking for their next HR role to contact them today via LinkedIn!

A. B.

I’m giving Handle a 4 Star review based on my most recent experience of them. And they’ve lost 1 star due to past experience. I’ve been with Handle since I finished University 7 years ago. I immediately signed up into the Office Administration, hoping to get more office experience. I met 1 agent and then another and another and another, and over the course of 6 years I never received work from Handle and barely any help. HOWEVER finding myself looking for work again recently I gave Handle one last chance. To my surprise I was into work in to temporary work within a week. When my temp job came to a end they were ready with another job lined up for me. And again after 2 interviews I was back in work again. And now I’ve been made a permanent memeber of staff. All thanks to my hard working, on the ball agent! Who I give thanks to. So give Handle a chance but if you’re not current in their mind you may loose out.

C. W.

Cally and Sophia have been a pleasure to Partner with at Handle. I have known Cally for many years and she has always been a massive support for recruitment. Cally is always super positive and works with so much professionalism and passion with everything that she does. I know I can rely on Cally be completely open and honest with me and to make things happen with efficiency. Sophia has been my dedicated Account Manager and it has been refreshing to work with someone so personable and so professional. Sophia has supplied a great caliber of Temp Workers to Michael Kors, so much so that several Temps have gone on to secure permanent positions within the Head Office. Thank you both for your ongoing support.

J. K.

I registered with Handle after having very little luck with other agencies. I found them to be extremely professional as well as approachable. They found me some great posts and I was offered a permanent position three weeks after starting my third temp role with them. They were very supportive in making sure I got a good package and I'm nothing but grateful. I would definitely recommend Handle!

M. M.

Handle recruitment->My favourite agency so far! Fantastic service with really friendly, caring and professional recruiters who put you at ease the first time you meet them. They dont waste time and assure you that they will find you something asap.. in my case it took place within 4 hours of walking in there!!..Special Shoutout to Francesca and Leanne for everything! They got me registered and even quicker than that they managed to find me a good role which I could start immediately! Thank you so much and you will certainly be my favourites! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 😊

J. G.

After 8 years in recruitment l found my career was going in reverse - l hated my job and l was no longer excited about my work or the industry l was in. Luckily enough, my younger brother had joined Handle the year before and got me in contact with Joanne at Handle. After briefly discussing my CV, she arranged to meet face to face to discuss the future. Through Handle l have successfully changed careers and now work for a TV company in their accounts division and l couldn't be happier - all thanks to Joanne and the amazing team at Handle - they helped me, they can help you too.

M. C. G.

I couldn't recommend Handle recruitment enough. I have had a really positive experience with them. Joe and Natasha helped me land the exact job I was looking for. Great communicators who were a joy to meet when registering and help you feel comfortable and confident going into an interview. Thanks so much again to the lovely Joe and Natasha at Handle, I had the right job in mind for myself and with your help that has now materialised, i'm chuffed.

C. K.

I had a great experience with Stephanie Goldfinch who was an amazing recruiter and helped me get my dream role at Universal Music. She always made herself available even on the weekend :). She was available to give me advice before my interviews and was proactive in updating me on the process to ensure I wasn't overthinking the outcome. She's friendly and extremely personable. I'm over the moon I got the job I wanted but it's a shame I won't be working with Stephanie anymore.

J. R.

Handle have been absolutely fantastic! Alice was extremely helpful, attentive and always on hand to answer any questions I had. She was so supportive, and helped build my confidence throughout the process too. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a job in the media/music industry.

A. G.

We have just recruited a marketing role with Olivia's help. She was fantastic and very professional. I am always delighted with Handle and the service that they offer. Olivia took the time to understand our business, culture and the requirements of the role. I would highly recommend for any future recruitment needs.

A. B.

So many graduates are finding it incredibly difficult to secure jobs at the moment, particularly if your industry is a hard one to crack - I went with Handle in the hopes of getting some basic admin experience in a relevant field in order to back up my academic qualifications. Within a few months they had secured me 6 months of temporary work at a LinkedIn Top Company that I'd applied for many times previous (to no avail). I've now been given a permanent contract with this employer, and am over the moon! Handle have been fab throughout this process, special shout out to my consultants Sara and Sophia who were always extremely friendly, supportive and helpful! Graduates, don't dismiss temping - it can really help get you places long term!

R. C.

Handle provided a tailored and personal service, that showed their professionalism as well as determination to find candidates their perfect role. My specific recruiter, Joanna, guided me through the entire process, providing feedback, best practice tips and 'luck' along the way. I now have the role that I wanted - I will continue to recommend Handle! Thanks team :)

C. E.

Handle are an amazing recruitment agency, Alice Scott and Emerald May were so lovely and helpful. They were very responsive and made my move into a new role stress free. Thank you so much guys!!

F. D.

Have to say Handle were brilliant whilst I temped with them at ASOS courtesy of Sophia. So good in fact that I ended up working for them! Great place to work brilliant atmosphere. Never had any problems with timesheets or pay (Thank you Charlie Parker). Definitely worth applying with them whether you're looking for permanent or temp roles

E. G.

I've recently dealt with Ryan, Sam and Edward and they've all been extremely professional, positive and supportive and they do deserve all praise there is. This trio will work very hard to find the best and most suitable roles for you. They'll be there to assist and guide you through every potential interview, making your job search as easy and enjoyable as possible. When the time comes for me to move on and look for a new role, I'm absolutely confident Handle will do yet another great job finding what I'm looking for. Thanks guys.

E. A.

I had such a positive experience with Handle! Jordan and Joe specifically were so uplifting and were able to help me land my first job with one of my dream companies. I would 100% recommend reaching out to Handle if you are interested in finding work in the creative industries.

A. B.

David's guidance and advice were greatly appreciated throughout the recruitment process. I found Handle to be an absolute pleasure to work with and would recommend them highly to any job seekers looking for dynamic opportunities at top-tier tech and media brands. Loved their office too!

I. O.

Had a great experience with Handle. From day one when I started to look for a new job, they were the first point of contact. Very approachable and friendly, always ready to help in my job search. Secured a great new job through them!

S. C.

I turned to Handle to find myself a new job after being in the worst one ever! I was so so miserable, I was off sick all the time from stress related illnesses and couldn't see any way out after trying to find a new job for months by myself. Alice from Handle was always so bright and positive when I felt at my worst and was incredibly helpful. She was very patient when I called about 7 times a day, she listened to my experience and understood how unhappy I was and she didn't just try to place me in the first job she found. Alice took her time to find the right fit for me and my personality/skills. I am now 4 months into my new job that Alice found for me and I can genuinely say that she's changed my life. I'm a new person now! People sometimes think recruitment companies can be tedious and not a lot of help...but my experience with Handle was literally life changing and I cannot thank them and Alice enough.

L. M.

Handle were really fantastic in helping me with my job search and provided a really detailed and professional intro to the company I landed a role with, all within 1 week! Great support from Hannah, Andrea and Danielle - all were very friendly and approachable. I'll be back :)

M. S.

Very professional staff. I was contacted about a role through social media and in less than 2 weeks I had a job offer! Everything was arranged at incredible speed and I was impressed. I would highly recommend Handle Recruitment. Many thanks to Leanne especially.

J. V.

I had an amazing experience working with Handle Recruitment, they are very responsive and do their best to find multiple roles that are a great match for what you are looking for. All the agents I worked with were lovely and friendly and did everything they could to help me finding a great new role.

A. O.

I had the most wonderful experience dealing with Handle Recruitment. A special shoutout to my recruiter Hannah Symes. I honestly could not have done it without her. She was always on the end of the phone, or email. We spoke before and after all my interviews, and we secured a job within a week. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

A. F.

I have been super impressed with the way a new recruitment process was 'handled' from the very first time we spoke a few months ago all the way through to a candidate being placed at Ocean Media Group. From the initial briefing we discussed, then the face-to-face meeting and then this final confirmation of the candidate starting her job. In between those times we actually hired a candidate from a different recruitment consultancy and that didn’t work out for us and this timely appointment has really helped me out of a difficult situation. The actual candidate sent to me fit my brief perfectly and despite my availability being sporadic and the resulting second interview and role play being quite immediate and difficult to arrange, Handle Recruitment did so with ease and enabled the candidate to have the best shot available – which she took with great confidence.

h. j.

Couldn't recommend Handle recruitment enough. The job market can be unpredictable and disappointing but they have always been supportive and most importantly... honest. Alice Scott and Natasha Uddin have been particularly wonderful. Thank you!

G. G.

Mya and Sophie at Handle Recruitment have been amazing. They prepared me very well for interviews, were very patient with me and kept in constant contact. They are very efficient and provide an exceptional service. I appreciated their quick response, efficiency and prompt follow-up to my requests.

K. C.

Handle have a great reputation for putting the best candidates forward for roles in media / entertainment which keeps them top of mind when new positions arise for both the employer and candidates. After re-registering with this agency, I was placed in a role in less than a month thanks to Sara Hamblin and co.

J. J.

We worked with handle on a series of web videos explaining what makes them different from most recruitment companies and breaking down each of their divisions and how they work. Shamal & Gill, with whom we worked most closely, we incredibly helpful, communicative and straight-talking throughout. Everyone we met when in filming seemed genuinely passionate about their roles, the company and doing their best for their clients and candidates. A real joy to work with. I would go there as a candidate and happily use them to recruit for our business, as well as continue to working with them on their video content!

H. M.

I had a great experience with Handle, in particular with Joe Bovis. He was extremely helpful and friendly and found me a job within a couple of days. If I ever had any questions or issues Joe would respond immediately. I would highly recommend Handle Recruitment.

Z. S.

If you want to work in the Music Industry, then Handle should be your first point of call for looking for a job. Alice and Jane advised me throughout my search and then found me my perfect role. They never gave up on me and carried on helping me when things did not go as planned. They helped me get my break in the business and I could not be happier. Thank you both I owe you a lot!

K. R.

I approached Handle a few years ago initially looking for some temp work and have consistently been impressed by the agency. Joe Bovis in particular has gone above and beyond to help me in placing three separate jobs which have all matched my requirements in terms of hours and the roles themselves. Joe has been incredibly approachable and helpful and I would fully recommend him (and Handle).

C. M.

I recently worked with Bobbie Turner at Handle and can't recommend her highly enough. She placed me with NBCU and was brilliant throughout the whole process - enthusiastic, communicative and honest. Her amazing people skills put you at ease and make what can feel an exhausting process smooth from start to finish!

V. R.

I got in touch with Sam Devies via LinkedIn and made an appointment to meet for a quick chat and discuss about what I was looking for. The meeting was really good, she was very attentive and I felt confident after speaking with her. Now, it has been only two weeks since the initial meeting and she has helped me find the right job. I am more than happy with the service and I will 100% recommend them to friends and family.

Excellent service, very professional and highly trained staff. I was contacted by Sam and Ryan regards to an oppertunity. The very next day my registration was completed and afternoon I had an interview. By the end of day, I was hired by the company. I admit Handle staff are very well trained to find the righ oppertunity, which match your skills. They also mananged to get me the required salary even the company was offering less than my requirement. A happy and saticfied member. Looking forward working with Handle in future.
