"The team provide a superb service at times that suit both the client and myself as an employee, including early mornings! Nothing is ever too much trouble. When I raise unusual questions, pay queries and where an intelligent solution is required. I very much appreciate the sincere support that I receive from Black Point Recruitment."
Mark Martin
Candidate
"I haven't had much success with agencies in the past. Mainly false promises & sheer nonsense has been the only thing my timesheets have seen. I sent my CV off to them & they responded the same afternoon by phone & had an interview date set up for me by the end of the same day. I strongly recommend them!
Lee Conibear
Candidate
"Black Point Recruitment is one of the best agency's I have worked for. They are always there if I need anything or have any questions. Black point always pay me on time without fail and check in every week just to see how I'm doing and everything's okay with the job. If you need work Black Point Recruitment is the place to go."
Steve Watton
Business Manager
"We started using Blackpoint Recruitment during the pandemic and found them to be very helpful and professional. At a time when other companies were not even responding to our calls due to demand, Blackpoint kept us in the loop of the current recruitment market and was able to supply good quality staff. My main reasons to continually work with Blackpoint was not just to find staff to put in positions but to work with us and understand our business so the staff put forward were right for the job. Blackpoint is currently our main supplier for staff on a temp to perm for the above reason. We have a fantastic working relationship between us and very happy to continually work with them. Would recommend it to any business looking for staff on either a temp or temp to perm basis."
Maisie Pateman
Senior Support Manager
"It is with much enthusiasm that i write to recommend the services of Black Point Recruitment. I have had a close working relationship with the company for four years with regards to recruiting several positions within Wren Kitchens. The team have been able to successful recruit temp to perm positions such as HGV Cat C, Cat C1 and Drivers Mates over these 4 years and continue to do so. They have sent us great office-based candidates for two of our Southern based depots which remain with us now. Black Point Recruitment have been able to supply us with last minute van drivers within hours of request, with all teams fulfilling the role to a high standard and representing our company well. I highly recommend the services of Black Point Recruitment."
Jason Jones
Contract Manager
"We have used Blackpoint Recruitment for many years on our service and have always found them to highly reliable, especially in times of urgent need when other providers have not been so helpful. They have always supplied high quality candidates for a variety of roles which have often led to their workers allocated to our contract for lengthy periods of time. They have been our preferred supplier due to this strong working relationship built up on trust over time. Their team are always at the end of the phone, even out of hours and late at night as my team have always felt assured that whenever they have made contact with them, that our needs will be considered and always met whenever they can. We have always felt that they provide a level of service that surpasses other agency providers."
