Yes, people know that we’ve been in the industry for almost 40 years, and in that time we’ve made a lot of customers very happy. But what have we got to show for it? This is what our testimonials page is for.
They are living, breathing proof of our claims, giving Central Employment the chance to enhance our enviable reputation and show people that what’s written in our website is not just generic jibber jabber. It shows that what we claim is true, and we have people to attest to that.
“Mark always rises to this challenge and provides excellent service as and when we need it”
Operations Manager - Multi Packaging Solutions
CEA have provided MPS with agency labour for a number of years, as the sole supplier. The company has an ever-expanding pool of temporary labour and employs approx 40-50 of these staff over a 24/6 shift pattern on a weekly basis.
The account has been very well handled by Mark Trett predominantly, who has faced a number of challenges from us to turn labour around very quickly to meet our ever changing production plan! Mark always rises to this challenge and provides excellent service as and when we need it.
Recently, Mark has employed other members of his team to work with our account to provide a broader range of cover. To date this has worked very well, with other team members continuing in the same vein as the service Mark gives.
“Throughout the entire process I found George and the agency as a whole to be professional, efficient and courteous.”
Michael Hodgson - Employee
As I was being made redundant I decided to distribute my CV to various agencies in the North East to begin the process of looking for a new job. I was contacted only a couple of days later by George from Central Employment who had found a great position for me. Throughout the entire process I found George and the agency as a whole to be professional, efficient and courteous.
During the process George explained the role in detail to me and advised on what to expect for the interview, three days later I had secured a position working at a blue chip company thanks to Central Employment.
I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend anyone looking for a position in the North East to register with them.
“As we operate 24/7, Andy always makes himself available out of office hours and at weekends”
Louise Walby - HR Advisor
We started using Central in December 2014 as we were dissatisfied with the service we were receiving from our other suppliers. At the beginning, we only used a couple of staff per week, but have gradually increased the numbers and are now using thirty plus staff on a regular basis.
The nature of our business dictates that we require additional staff at very short notice to meet customer demand which can be sporadic in nature. Andy Scott is the main contact and he reacts very quickly with the Supervisors to provide staff that he has personally inducted from the pool, which he holds at very short notice.
As we operate 24/7, Andy always makes himself available out of office hours and at weekends to answer queries and meet our Business requirements. The Supervisors have greatly welcomed this service and it makes their job much easier knowing they have the full support of Andy.
A testimonial to this, is that many of the staff that have started through Central now have contracts directly with us.
The Accounts department have also welcomed the quick responses that they receive to any payroll queries and the good working relationship that they have in working together to make the process run smoothly.
The Production, Accounts and HR team would have no hesitation in recommending Central for your temporary labour needs.
“It is a great peace of mind to find an agency that will work in a flexible, professional and proactive way”
Marie Kingston - Kasai (Formerly R-TEK Ltd.)
Central Employment has worked in close partnership with Kasai (formerly R-TEK LTD) for over 10 years, supplying all our short term recruitment needs.
Throughout this time, Central Employment have developed a close working relationship with our supervisors to ensure they have a clear understanding of all of our business requirements.
Over the past year, Central Employment have been very proactive to ensure their clients are aware of the implications to their business of the forthcoming changes in legislation, by keeping us up to date on the published guidance documentation and also hosting seminars for their clients. We continue to work together in partnership to ensure the least disruption to our business.
Central Employment have always been flexible to meet our business requirements. Over the past year we have worked together to develop and enhance our recruitment process to ensure that all temporary workers are ready for work, ensuring that we retain a ‘pool’ of workers on standby for us.
In business, it is a great peace of mind to find an agency that will work in a flexible, professional and proactive way.
“The quality of service we have received is, and always has been of a very high standard.”
Bakery Manager - Warburtons
Central Employment have provided Warburtons with temporary labour since May 2006 and I think it’s fair to say that the quality of service we have received is, and always has been of a very high standard.
Mark Trett manages the contract with an obvious focus on excellence and this reflect in both the ability to turn around staffing needs on time and with premium personal.
I would not hesitate in recommending Central Employment Agency to any employer looking for a top quality recruitment service built upon a strong working relationship, the ability to get the job done right first time and the provision of ongoing support mechanisms which is greatly appreciated given that we work in a 24/7 fast paced manufacturing environment.

I would recommend him to my network without hesitation.
