Helpful and supportive consultants
Michael B my consultant updated me virtually daily with the current vacancies. and with regard to my cv submissions. When I secured a position, he checked in with me as often as possible to keep me abreast of the situation. Even on my first day, he took the time to wish me well. In relation to meeting compliance I was supported by Archie who went above and beyond to get everything completed to ensure my start date was met.
Thank you both for all your help. Keep up the great work.

Exceptional Support and Partnership from Sanctuary Personnel
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Sanctuary Personnel – in particular Billy and Archie – through my company, Care Safe Training and Consultancy Ltd, on a number of interim contracts both inside and outside IR35. Their professionalism, responsiveness and genuine care for getting the right fit have been outstanding. Communication has been clear and proactive at every stage, and they’ve consistently gone above and beyond to support both me and the services I’ve worked with. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Billy, Archie and the wider Sanctuary team to any organisation looking for reliable, knowledgeable and personable recruitment support.
