about elite personnel

At elite personnel, we have been helping employers to find the perfect job applicants since 1998. Our dedicated recruitment agency strives to provide excellent customer service, and we ensure that a member of our team is available for support (to both employers and temporary workers) 7 days a week.

We encourage a productive and positive working environment. All of our candidates are eligible for our monthly awards for productivity, punctuality and reliability. Our temporary staff are also eligible for our “Temporary Worker of the Year Award”. We feel it is important to appreciate our temporary workforce and celebrate their achievements.

At elite personnel, we also focus on the role that responsible employment plays in the community. We like to reach out to schools in order to help school leavers to get into meaningful work.

Our community focus doesn’t end there. We regularly contribute to various charities, particularly donating to Macmillan Cancer Support and Wear It Pink day.

our team has a broad range of experience in recruitment across a range of sectors
