Report
One of the best agencies to temp with. The whole team are absolutely lovely and incredibly consistent with finding you work that is right for both you and their client. Would highly recommend signing up, especially if you are studying and require flexibility around around your hours. A huge added bonus, is the incredible opportunities you get, to experience working with some of the best companies in the industry.

I had the pleasure of working with/through Impact for almost 18 months as a Temp EA. I found the team really helpful and supportive and the I loved the companies they placed me in. I continued to develop my skill set in some brilliant roles and met some really nice people along the way, some of whom are now good friends. I can't recommend Impact enough and a special shout out to Sam Stock for all his work. Impact is professional, intelligent, diligent & they are a lovely bunch of people with great contacts.

I have worked with Impact on and off for many years. They have been great when I have needed temporary work and have been amazing when I have been looking for permanent roles. Impact are my first port of call if I am looking for a new opportunity and I often direct friends and colleagues their way if they are looking for new opportunities. Impact are unique in that they listen to you and they never lose their personal touch. They have an amazing portfolio of clients so you never feel like you are being sent for the same kind of role unlike some of the other recruiters in the market today. I'm not

Highly recommend this recruitment agency! They just helped me to get my first full-time finance job after graduating from uni. Met four consultants on the day I registered with them, took time listening to my work experience and my job preferences. Everyone is very friendly in the office and they are very efficient and responsive. Definitely the best recruitment agency to go to if you are looking for a job in the media and creative industry!
