We recently used James Ray recruitment to fill a vacancy in my company. Following their screening processes they produced for us two candidates who were both suitable for the role we needed filling. The process was simple and great value for money. I would have no hesitation in using them again in the future

James Ray are a highly skilled recruitment agency who I've now been working with for a couple of months, I wanted to wait a while to allow for a solid review. They resolve any issues instantly. They have an outstanding pay rate for different types of cover and are very very quick to secure placements. Overall, I highly advise James Ray to anyone looking for a trustworthy and skilled team to support in placements. Thank you James Ray for all of your support and continued partnership!

James Ray Recruitment are a highly professional and friendly agency. Kat and her team really listened to my preferences and I was never short of work in a great range of schools across Hull and East Riding. A fantastic agency to work for-I highly recommend them. I have now secured a long term position and I have Kat to thank for her encouragement and for building my confidence after a career break from teaching to raise a family. Good location in Beverley too. I will definitely work for James Ray Recruitment again!

James Ray delivers what it says it will. There are many agencies who will use various tactics to get you signed up and then deliver very little. They have been great for me.

I worked with James Ray whilst looking for a new role, and primarily dealt with a lady called Evie. She was honestly wonderful - patient, friendly, encouraging and positive - when some other agencies have been brusque and quite negative. Contact was frequent but not intrusive. I would highly recommend James Ray Recruitment and Evie in particular.

An incredible company of kind and friendly staff. If you are in need of Cover staff for schools this should be your first call. They are well organised and friendly with high standards and a strong work ethic. If you are looking to work in Supply I cannot recommend a better company to work for.

I would like to praise the pro-active efforts and efficacy of the staff at James Ray Recruitment, in finding me a long-term placement within my specialist subject, within the first week of the start of the academic year in September 2023.

Extremely helpful and friendly service who actually find you work very quickly! Some Agencies don't contact you after you have completed all the forms required. Luke has been very proactive in finding work placements and is keen to ensure it suits you.

Just wanted to give feedback on great service I recently received from James Ray. Very helpful, gave me some really good advice, and helped me find the support I needed quickly. I particularly appreciated the support from Kat who did what she said she'd do and was there when I need to talk things through. For me, very good service.

He is supportive, encouraging, personable and always so kind. When your staff are brilliant, your company is brilliant and James Ray is a shining example of that. Anyone wanting to join a teaching agency, I couldn't recommend them more.
