While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

About as useful as a chocolate ashtray

About as useful as a chocolate ashtray. If I wanted a list of local agencies I could of just gone on Google or duck duck go . Another useless addition for the local Marxist jobcentre staff to bother you with.

Thanks for your comment.

We are aware that some Jobcentre advisers choose to show jobseekers Agency Central as a neutral way to identify local recruitment agencies, although we are not affiliated with Jobcentre Plus or any government body.

Our aim is to bring verified recruitment agency information together in one place, allowing people to find and contact relevant agencies by location and sector without having to search multiple individual websites. Where possible, we also provide direct email contact options to make that process quicker.

We are not sure whether all of this was explained at the point the site was suggested to you, and if not that may understandably have affected your experience. If you would like to contact us, we would be happy to help ensure you are able to use the search tools in the way intended. We also have a live chat system, staffed by real people rather than bots, available to help. Or email us at customersupport@agencycentral.co.uk and we can set up a direct call to help you.

The Agency Central Team

The Agency Central Team contacted me, and within a few hours three different recruitment agencies contacted me, They were efficient and professional and kept in touch to see how things where progressing. They offered further help and asked if I required further assistance or needed more recruitment options,
Highly recommend.

Wow what a fantastic find for me

Wow what a fantastic find for me. A one stop shop that finds recruitment agencies for me in an area i don't know. Sarah has been brilliant helping me find the right agencies to use, shes fast and polite and knows her stuff. Everyone that has come to me from my enquiry has been exactly what i needed recruitment wise.

6 year customer! Still here! 10/10

I have been an Agency Central customer for coming up to 6 years, with various agencies I have worked for. I can honestly say, this is a resource i would not operate without. Its easy, reliable, consistent and a great asset to have (it's like the BD is done for you)!

Costs are easily made back, and any issues are resolved within 30 mins - even though I have never had any. Could recommend more! 100/10!

For many years

For many years, Agency Central has been an integral part of our business development strategy. Their comprehensive platform has long been an invaluable tool for improving our visibility, generating leads and extending our reach in the market. Additionally, the support received from their friendly customer service team has always been outstanding, going above and beyond to ensure we get the most from the site.

We highly recommend Agency Central to other recruitment agencies looking to scale up their operations.

The yellow pages of Recruitment Agencies

My husband found himself unemployed, and we used this website to find different recruitment agencies and, after some research on Google, contact some reputable recruiters in our area.

Trustworthy and it'll save you a lot of time when you find yourself in the same situation.

Attention they are scammers

Attention they are scammers. It is a fictitious agency, they tried to contact me by WhatsApp, and did not even know my name... I do not know where they got my phone... do not trust .

Thanks for the post, but I'm afraid this is nothing to do with Agency Central Ltd and we aren't an agency, but a Directory of UK Agencies who have been operating legitimately for 24 years. There is someone in Vietnam who is pretending to work for our business and contacting people via WhatsApp, but has nothing to do with us. We have reported the issue to WhatsApp in the hope they can do something to help. This happens to lots of companies who have popular internet websites or are well known businesses. Would you mind removing this post, or at least removing the 1-star rating? It has nothing to do with us and we are doing what we can to stop it. Thank you.

Thought this was meant to be a place to…

Thought this was meant to be a place to find good agencies. All 3 of the ones that came up had a 1 or 2 star rating on Google! On closer inspection I unearthed the fact that this is simply a place where agencies pay through the nose to advertise and be on the list. Avoid this list if you're looking for a good agency and look for recruiters with 5 star LinkedIn reviews instead
