“I felt well supported during the recruitment process and the onboarding process. Everything worked seamlessly and there was no concern at all. The support at beginning was also really good and it made settling down easier. ”
“I have been working through Ambient People for about 18 months and in that time I have been able to contact them and when I do I get a response back very quickly and nothing I ask (as a first time worker through an agency) has been too much trouble and any issues resolved by the end of the day. I am very happy to be part of their community. ”
“Overall, the management of the hiring process was smooth and efficient and the roles I was put forward for matched my skills and experience. The engagement from the Ambient people was excellent and Max’s communication was always clear and supportive.”
“I have worked professionally with Liam for over 20 years and can vouch for his professionalism and ability to find the best contracts for my skill sets. He's established a very professional team of consultants who are dedicated and never lose sight of our wellbeing and always provide support and feedback. ”
“I'm proud to be represented by Ambient People who are thoroughly professional and very well organised. Their sector knowledge combined with their rock solid integrity puts them firmly in the top tier of agencies. ”
“Andy understands the local government interim finance market and, importantly, what the big issues facing the sector are. Andy understands the skills and experiences I have and the assignments I am interested in – leading to 100% good matches for me and the employer. ”
“I can’t thank Max enough for his incredible support. Max’s responsiveness and regular check-ins have been reassuring. The onboarding process was smooth and well-structures, providing everything I needed to get started. The team’s dedication has made all the difference especially as a first-time interim.”
“Ambient staff have been very approachable, pleasant and always there to support and help me find assignments in a timely manner which meet my needs, including things like flexible working and supportive teams. Once successful, the onboarding and paperwork was done with efficiency and accuracy. ”
“I joined Ambient Peoples Service almost a year ago and I have never looked back in terms of getting interim jobs with them. They have been very supportive through my interim roles and been quick to find me new positions when my previous roles have come to an end. ”
Values and Principles
We picked these values carefully. They speak to who we are, what we care about, and what we are striving to be.
Take responsibility
We are supposed to be the expert on the hiring journey, so we have to own it – whether it goes right or wrong.
Earn trust
Networks thrive on trust; it’s hard earned, and easily lost.
Seek Improvement
Our willingness to learn is the difference between where we are now, and the potential we have.
Drive Success
Results matter. We are an ambitious lot, and we’re OK with that.
Finally, we’ve got one more guiding principle. It is born from how we want to treat people, and to balance confidence with humility.
respect everyone + back yourself
