Honestly one of the best agencies I have ever worked for. Julie has been an absolute star from start to finish, very responsive even at random hours of the evening and builds great relationships with her clients. I'm honestly sad I have found a job with someone else, the level of service I have had from one to one gas been fantastic. Payslips prompt every Wednesday. Paid exactly when I'm supposed to, with the correct amount even when working overtime. And very competitive rates (other agencies pay less for the same job) Would highly recommend one to one. Martin

A fantastic company to be involved with and Ian in particular. After the year that was, Ian found me at the end of 2020 which has resulted in me finding a very, very exciting new job, and being able to meet some new fantastic people. Always on hand to offer advice and support, I have actually found it to be one of the few agencies who do call when they say, and give updates, there is no chasing them. Very professional, Ian spoke with me greatly and understood my needs and had has certainly found me the perfect dream role. I cannot recommend One to One Personnel enough.
