You know what job you want. Nobody tells you who to send it to.
Pick a job family and you get three things: the job titles that family actually uses, how people get in without a relevant degree, and a list of the recruitment agencies that hire for it — with every site checked by hand.
- Accounting & finance Accounts Assistant, Credit Controller, Assistant Accountant, Payroll, Audit. The densest agency market in the country, and 17 verified agencies. AAT and ACCA explained.
- Construction, property & the built environment Document Controller, Assistant Quantity Surveyor, Site Engineer, Lettings, Block Management. 16 verified agencies — almost none of which you would find by accident.
- Warehousing, logistics & supply chain Warehouse Operative, Stock Controller, Transport Planner, Logistics Coordinator. 9 verified agencies, 2 big employers to apply to direct, and a straight answer about which roles are permanent and which are agency temp.
What this is
Every job family has a layer of recruitment agencies in front of it. Some of them place almost everyone who gets hired into that family. Most of them have no advertising, no brand recognition and no reason for you to have heard of them. You cannot apply to an agency you do not know exists.
So somebody had to sit down and work out, family by family, which agencies are real, which ones genuinely cover that work, and how you register without being signed up to something you did not want. That is all this site is. It took weeks to do it for one job search. It takes you about four minutes to read.
What we check, for every agency on every page
- The site loads. Dead agencies stay on other people’s lists for years. They do not stay on ours.
- They name that work on their own site. Not guessed from the company name, not inferred from a LinkedIn bio — written on their own pages.
- Whether registering is a CV drop or an alert sign-up. Marked on every row, because plenty of people would rather not have jobs pushed at them by email, and nobody else tells you which is which before you hand over your address.
- Permanent, temporary, or both. It matters enormously and it is often buried.
- A published contact address, where there is one, so you can reach a human instead of a form.
Each page carries the date it was checked. If a page is more than a few months old, treat the phone numbers as the least reliable thing on it.
Two things that are true on every page
The same job title means different jobs in different places
This is the single most expensive thing to learn by trial and error. Two adverts with identical titles can want opposite people — different qualifications, different experience, different industry entirely. Every family has at least one pair like this, and every page here names its own.
Registering puts you in a database. A conversation puts you in a consultant’s head
A profile gets keyword-matched by software. A consultant who has actually spoken to you puts you forward for roles that were never advertised — and in agency recruitment, a lot of roles never are. So register, then follow up with a short email naming one or two live roles from their own site and asking where they think you fit. That question is answerable in a line, it flatters their expertise, and it gets you a specialist’s honest read on your CV. “Do you have anything for me?” gets nothing.
Free, and no account
There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to pay. We do not store your CV, because we never ask for it. We do not send you anything, because we do not have your address. Bookmark the page for your family and come back to it when you want to — the whole site is built to be looked at, not subscribed to.
More families later
Three to start with, chosen because they are large and because agencies genuinely do the hiring in them — which is a different list from the biggest industries. Next, in rough order: engineering and manufacturing, IT and digital, health and social care, HR, legal, hospitality and events.
