My previous experience working within the FMCG sector as a Production Manager means I am able to combine my industry expertise with my recruitment knowledge to be a specialist in this sector.

I love meeting new people and I gain satisfaction from building long-term relationships and exceeding expectations. I always aim to learn as much as I can about my clients and candidates which ensures I always select the right people for the right jobs.

  • “ Ambitions consider my challenges, to be their own challenges ”

    ​I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ambitions since the early 00’s. In all that time, I’ve found their team and service to be exemplary. I’ve always found that Simon, Lee & the other team members at Ambitions consider my challenges, to be their own challenges. I feel that even after 20 years, they treat me and the business I represent, as important as ever.

  • “ Very bespoke and personal service ”

    I found Ambitions Personnel online as I was looking for some office work in my local area. I decided to go into the office to speak to somebody face to face. That’s where I met Lee Sargent, he sat down with me and highlighted what he could offer me and I highlighted what I was looking for. It was a very bespoke and personal service. From this meeting, he arranged multiple interviews and meetings with various employers. I am now on my 5th week doing accounts and credit control for a very established and reputable company and I am grateful for the access Lee and ambitions were able to give me.

  • “ Genuine feeling of friendliness and caring ”

    We relocated to the Boston area from the south eighteen months ago and after three or four months of unpacking and settling in, I decided it was time to look for work. From the moment I went into Ambitions Office in Boston I was treated with the utmost courtesy and a genuine feeling of friendliness and caring. I was very pleasantly surprised when my first temporary assignment came about within a week and lasted from December to the following June. My second assignment commenced one week after that and has only just reached the end of the contract period. (March 2019).  In all this time I have not experienced anything other than total professionalism and team support and I commend you all for the excellent service levels not only to the Client Companies but also for going that extra mile for the staff as well. Keep up the good work.

  • “ Lee, Marie, Simon and the team have been absolutely fantastic ”

    Lee, Marie, Simon and the team have been absolutely fantastic. I contacted Lee through LinkedIn and he asked me to come in for a chat. We sat down for over an hour and within a few days I was in a fantastic role in a fantastic company. From there, Marie was always on hand to answer my questions and Simon was always checking up on me. Lee has since worked very hard to find future employment for me. Great team led by some great people.

  • “ Openness to help together with your patient attitude enabling me to see the light at the end of the tunnel ”

    I am writing to you to thank you for my current temporary work This is like a real godsend for me. That day when you phoned with this offer I was trying to figure out how to help someone dear to me. First, your colleague phoned regarding some work in two other places. I agreed to accept one of these places. And then there was your phone call offering this job. You explained the character of it and you were right my manager is a lovely person, professional and a great teacher. I feel privileged to work with her, even temporarily, she is very supportive. I am really enjoying the work, the various tasks to be accomplished make days worthwhile. Even the humble shredding seems to bring a boost of self-confidence. Thank you again, your openness to help together with your patient attitude enabling me to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
