‘Warwick Employment Group has been a crucial partner in helping us meet our staffing needs during the term, particularly when it comes to covering essential roles like kitchen porters and catering assistants on a daily basis. Their team has consistently demonstrated a commitment to quick and reliable support, responding promptly to all our queries and requirements. This efficiency and dedication have ensured that our operations run smoothly, even during our busiest periods. Their professionalism and responsiveness have truly made a difference, and we are grateful for their exceptional service.’
‘Following the formation of our Unitemps branch at Teesside University in 2024, we tried to advertise and appoint an experienced branch manager. We struggled in terms of receiving enough interest and applications for the role, which we had advertised through our traditional university HR routes. I approached Jonathan at Warwick Employment Group to support us. As we were working to a tight deadline, Jonathan and the team were excellent in providing full support, which included promoting and advertising the role. Not only did they receive many applicants, they also supported me in shortlisting suitable candidates for interview. We were delighted with the quality of candidates we interviewed and were pleased to make an appointment of our branch manager who was a very strong candidate for this role.
Overall, the speed and quality of service we received from WEG was exceptional, and without their assistance we would have been unable to get the right candidate and meet the required timeline for appointment and launch. I would highly recommend Jonathan and WEG following our own excellent personal experience.’
‘I have had the pleasure of using Warwick Employment Group over the past 12 months, and I can't recommend their service highly enough.
The team are incredibly responsive, helpful, and knowledgeable, and genuinely care about helping you achieve your goals.
Their commitment to customer satisfaction truly sets them apart. If you’re looking for a reliable service that delivers, look no further.’
