Testimonials

Shire & Wold Staffing are one of those agencies that you rarely find anymore, they care about their candidates and very much understand the client's needs. It was a super smooth process finding a great Housekeeper for my principal's Country Estate. I would absolutely recommend them and without a doubt use their service again.

Client
My first impression with Shire & Wold Staffing service was the best I have seen, they were always very kind and available to help and chat with me, always kept in touch if I was worried about anything. After one month in my role, Zoe came to visit me at my workplace to see how I was getting on. She made sure I was happy and content in my new role. This was my first time using an agency and Zoe made me feel so comfortable and reassured
Candidate
Fantastic recruitment agency to go through, with an emphasis on a personal approach to understand the needs of both clients and candidates.
