"We always find Jobshop UK most helpful. It is one of the most successful agencies we have dealt with. It is very professional, understands our needs and only sends us the right calibre of administration staff to fill our vacancies. This is demonstrated by the fact that their temporary staff are often offered permanent positions within the company."
Siemens Transportation Systems

Knightstone Housing Association
"Jobshop UK take the trouble to listen to our requirements, visit if necessary, and understand our company culture. Then they “follow-up” as necessary. A dedicated and caring company."
Locators
"I have been working with Jobshop UK on a number of projects now for over a year. I have been surprised and delighted by their professionalism, attention to detail, friendliness and genuine commitment. There is, I think, a common perception – rightly or wrongly – that recruitment agencies are largely staffed by ‘consultants’ who might be better described as ‘street traders’! This is exactly what Jobshop UK is not: on the contrary, they seem to really care about outcomes for their clients and their suppliers – they want win-win outcomes all round, not just the next transaction.
Over and above their long term commitment to relationships, I have also noticed that people at Jobshop have another great quality that I particularly like: it’s called fun. Working with them is so easy, so enjoyable, and often a laugh. The laughing, of course, helps lubricate getting the job done effectively.
I therefore unreservedly recommend Jobshop UK to my clients – I think they do a great job, and hope you try them too."
James Sale FRSA - Creative Director, Motivational Maps Ltd
"I’m sorry that this change of system means we won’t have such personal contact, but I hope all goes well for you and your team. Over the (many) years you have never provided anyone who wasn’t of the highest standard, as you know us and our organisation so well."
Glenda Toohig – PA Chief Executive, Bournemouth Borough Council
"I would like to take this opportunity in thanking you for the excellent service I have received from yourself and Jobshop UK. It is always difficult to replace long standing team members and recently our Administrator decided it was time to retire, this was a real concern for me as she had been in post for many years and replacing her was going to be tough for all of us.
I spoke to my colleague and she gave me the name Jobshop UK and informed me that the service and quality of temps has always been very high. Well, it’s fair to state, I have also found that to be the case.
Thank you for matching so well and for the support that is always available when we need it."
Kevin Nash – Workshop Operations Manager, Bournemouth Borough Council
"Just a quick e-mail to let you know all the staff you sent us were brilliant and worked very well together. They all picked up the information required very quickly and if we were able to have the same team next year that would be wonderful."
Samantha Hawkins – Administration Officer, Bournemouth Borough Council
"I would like to congratulate Tracey Wood on the professionalism of her staff at Jobshop UK in Poole, in assisting me in sourcing a new job after relocating to Dorset. It had been an incredibly difficult task in sourcing a similar role in the Dorset area after working in Berkshire for 10 years as an Operations Director within a manufacturing company. It was therefore refreshing to meet such dedicated, honest and helpful staff upon contacting Jobshop who assisted me in finding temporary work whilst securing a permanent position. A year and a half later I am still working at the same organisation where I temped, however now on a permanent contract at management level. A Jobshop success story, and one that I felt should be shared. Thank you Jobshop – you are a cut above the rest!"
Louise Avery-Holder, Business Enterprise Manager, Bournemouth & Poole College of FE
"Jayne, on behalf of Jobshop, always manages to match the temp to our needs – our experience with other agencies has been they they will just fill the vacancy with anyone rather than lose it."
Pauline Mansfield, Easden Financial Services Ltd
"Just thought I would drop you a quick e-mail to let you know how impressed I am working with Ali. She has remained completely professional through all mine and my clients sometimes unreasonable requests and continuously keep both Debbie and myself informed as to the progress of each of my vacancies. She is a pleasure to work with and has restored my faith in recruitment agencies."
Sue Kerr, Inspirational HR
"Jayne, you have established a good relationship with us and have historically provided us with candidates that met the specification set. Your years of experience and strong local market knowledge must be of great benefit to Jobshop as it allows you as a company to compete and in some cases overcome some of the larger national agencies. I also appreciate the way in which you carry out your business, as you know from my experience in recruitment I prefer to deal with honest and genuine consultants who don’t disappear as soon as the going gets tough."
Aaron Cook, Buyer, Royal Bournemouth Hospital
"Alison, I just wanted to say “thank you” for persevering with this vacancy and your dedication to finding suitable applicants. I always appreciate it when Recruitment Consultants focus on exactly what is needed rather than just forwarding the details of everyone that walks into their offices! It saves a lot of time and energy for everyone else and I just wanted to show it was recognised and appreciated."
Tony Duffy, Lush Cosmetics
"Listened more carefully than other agencies to exact person requirements."
Shelley Hargreaves, Southern Print
"Following initial meeting and agreements everything offered and promised has been followed through. Competitive rates."
Gill Blanshard, Head of College, Oakmead College of Technology
"Very friendly and approachable consultants, they know our company and try and ensure suitable candidates – also no high pressure calls."
Nikki Whitehouse, Raglan Housing Association
"I am writing to commend, and indeed recommend, Alison Wiseman as a simply excellent recruitment consultant.
I had not dealt with Jobshop before and upon my first meeting with Ali I was immediately impressed with her friendly yet professional attitude.
I could tell straight away that she was from the old (and in my opinion correct) school of thinking about recruitment – don’t send 10 candidates and hope one will fit ......just send the right one!
Ali and the team at Jobshop have successfully filled half of the vacancies that I have had during my time here, and that is with us at times not even having a full spec, or being sure of what we have wanted ourselves.
Ali has been excellent in all her dealings with us and I would fully recommend her to another organisation. I just wanted to ensure that her great work didn’t go unnoticed. Thanks Ali (and team) – keep up the fab work!"
Emma Thompson, Arcall plc
