It’s been a pleasure to work with JGA Recruitment Ltd to get a new role. Freddy has been great with communication and I now have a new job to look forward to starting soon! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend as a reliable, friendly and approachable recruitment agency. They seem to work towards finding the right person for the right job as well as managing client expectations. Will be staying in touch should I need any assistance in finding roles in the future.
Freddy Moorhouse found my new role and he made the entire process seamless. Highly recommend! Well done Freddy for being a true professional throughout.
Natalie is an absolute credit to JGA – working with her was a seamless and yet personal experience and nothing was ever too much for her. I would highly recommend JGA for a very straight forward attitude to recruitment as I didn’t feel like my time was being wasted and I got a dream job – which was down to Natalie more so than my searching. Thank you!
I recently got my DREAM JOB with JGA Recruitment! I worked with Alexandra and she is just the best recruiter I’ve worked with. She was so lovely, helpful and prepped me for both stages of the interview process and made me feel so confident whilst interviewing (for the first time ever – I’m usually a nervous wreck!) She’s so friendly and approachable and always had time for me and answered all my questions. She really cared about me and whether I got the job, and was just as happy for me when I got it as all my friends and family were! Thank you so much Alexandra!!! 🙂
Highly recommend. I was put forward for an opportunity I was not aware of prior to JGA contacting me, an interview was organised swiftly and I received an offer 8 days after first contact. All information was communicated well without hassling too much. My agent Nabeel was helpful, friendly and clear!
I have had other recruitment agencies reach out to me before, but none have been as good as Alex has been to me nor have they shown the level of care JGA have shown!
Rachael from JGA Recruitment changed my life for the better in a really magical way and I just cannot thank her enough for her outstanding service. She goes above and beyond and is incredibly dedicated to her clients and candidates. She has a special talent in matching candidates to clients/jobs and not only she is professional but also very personable.
Amazing support from JGA and special thanks to Rachael O’Brien – got my next level so dreamed job!
Experienced a professional, close guidance & prep and feedback. From the moment Rachael described the job to me on the phone I was very interested and without her I would not have been able to secure the position. Thank you!
Alex helped me find a new role with better prospects for future career development, she talked me through the process, helped me negotiate the salary, checked in along the way and has been happy to help throughout every stage. She’s felt more like a friend helping me out rather than a recruiter, which has been lovely
I am very happy to have worked with Matthew to secure my new position. He was honest, polite and proactive from receiving my application up until he called me with an offer. He called me before and after each interview and showed real interest and concern in my progress with the application. He was very positive and easy to talk, he even said I could call him at the weekend should I have any issues before starting my job. I definitely recommend him and the JGA team.
Thank you!!
Freddy was excellent in communicating about the role, preparing me for the expectations of his client, and following up afterwards. I would have no hesitation in recommending him and his firm for future appointments.
Many thanks to Natalie Lloyd who represented me through my recruitment process. A very bubbley, enthusiastic consultant who was always very professional but provided enormous support, leading to my successful recruitment.
Thanks to Paul Dargavel from JGA, I have recently secured myself a very favorable position with a blue-chip company. I cannot fault the service that received and despite busy schedule Paul made the process effortless. I was also very impressed with the work that Paul did updating my CV that I thought was already good enough. Top class service, thank you!
Chris at JGA is one of the most professional and dedicated consultant I have had a pleasure of working with. He will only take on roles that he knows he can fulfill, and that’s why he’s marvellous at what he does. He has supplied some great quality candidates to my clients!
I’ve had the pleasure of using James Gray Associates in assisting me with finding my next role in payroll management. I worked with Paul Dargavel, whose expertise landed me an excellent role as a Payroll Relationship Manager for a luxury health and fitness leisure club. This is a perfect role for me as it allows me to build relationships with our UK stakeholders as well as those across 13 European clubs. Paul was attentive and on point when it comes to gathering details and responding to my queries. On his interview instructions, not only did he place details about the role and interview guidelines, he also placed details on the interviewers to include their pictures and LinkedIn profile. By the time I got to the interview, I was well acquainted with the company and the interviewers and they were well impressed. I’ve been here for 3 months and still loving it. Thank you Paul, for your tenacity and level of detail.
I am very pleased and happy in how Paul Dargavel has helped me in finding my new job. He is very professional and knows the trade very well, given his years of experience as a recruiter he definitely is the est person to approach for new roles.
I was approached by Ros about a job vacancy and was soon contacted by Nick who saw the whole process through with professionalism and ease. The whole process was first class and I have a job that I love so a big thank you to JGA Recruitment for all their help!
JGA offered an incredibly smooth process, with coaching on the interview process offered at each stage. Would highly recommend to both payroll candidates and employers.
I really thank JGA Recruitment Ltd for giving me great job offers. I really appreciate your work and help. I liked your service a lot. I like to say special thanks to Liam Allen. Thank you JGA Team once again for getting me a Job.:)
Brilliant experience of working with Freddie at JGA. He was very supportive through the recruitment process and I was lucky enough to land an amazing opportunity. Seamless and professional service!
Sophie at JGA has been amazing with helping me prepare and capture a new role so soon after being made redundant. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend both her and JGA in general for recruitment needs

He has kept in touch with positive feedback after securing this role. I would recommend this agency to anyone.
I’ve recently had the pleasure of working with Freddy at JGA Recruitment who has assisted with finding me a new job. I’ve found the whole process very easy and Freddy has been so helpful, friendly and professional throughout the process.

I have been recently offered a new job with the help of Freddy at JGA Recruitment. Freddy’s been amazing going out and beyond to resolve all my queries and even negotiated the pay I wanted with my employer. I cannot thank and recommend Freddy and JGA Recruitment enough for their outstanding service.
I highly recommend JGA recruitment, from start to finish Alex has been amazing with top level communication as well as friendliness and of course finding me a job which is suitable for me and guiding me through the process.
When she first contacted me about an opportunity I was a little sceptical and unsure if it was for me but she gave me encouragement and as things progressed I became more and more interested and wanted to be successful. Throughout the whole journey she was very supportive and gave me a lot of confidence. Dealing with her was quite an uplifting experience and I particularly loved her approach – gentle, friendly, and encouraging and not pushy or sales pitched. She really does treat candidates as individuals. I couldn’t wait to share the news that I had been successful because I couldn’t have done it without her. Now I’m very happy with my new job and my new employer and I still believe Rachael is an angel. If you are lucky enough to deal with her you can expect a magic to happen.
I was approached by Rachael O’brien regarding a Job vacancy I’ve applied for and took me through the process whilst helping me prepare for my interviews. She was very helpful and was constantly keeping track of my progress. In the end she helped me secure my dream job. Rachel’s support was excellent, friendly, trustworthy and she was available at any time and helped me immediately if I had any questions. I can 100% recommend JGA an especially Rachel.
I was assisted in my job search by Alexandra Walker and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better! So friendly, positive and supportive. She made the whole process easy and enjoyable. Thank you JGA!
I couldn’t recommend JGA enough.
Having worked for a professional services firm I received plenty of calls, e-mails and LinkedIn messages from recruiters who were trying to encourage me to move to an equivalent firm in an equivalent role. I regularly felt that they were just trying to move me to earn commission, rather than listening to the reasons why I wanted to move or the type of role I was looking for.
I would like to send my gratitude to Matthew for his support in finding the perfect job. Thanks to him I found a job in Payroll even though I had no experience (just finished a Sage 50 course 2 weeks back). Even after I got the job he called me to ask how am I doing and sent me a Congratulation Basket at my work place (It was very thoughtful and nice of him). If I intend to change jobs in the future, I will definitely call JBA Recruitment. Thank you for all your help!
I’ve had the pleasure of working with JGA with the last 15 years and have no issue recommending them. JGA go the extra mile in relation to the customer service and passion for the industry and their professionalism and accumen ensure that prospective applicants are thoroughly reviewed to ensure only those who fit the bill attend. Their communication during the process is excellent and their attention to detail thorough
Paul at JGA helped me so much with finding a suitable role for me and was in great communication with me through the entire process. Highly recommended agency!
Fantastic company. My recruiter was called Liam, who was very friendly and got me my new job. Couldn’t recommend more.
I have worked closely with Callum Dudrenec who has been extremely helpful and professional in finding the exact job I wanted. I cannot thank him enough and I would definitely recommend JGA to anyone looking to secure a new job!
Hi, my name is Julie Lomas, and I have been dealing with Callum Dudrenec. This has been such an experience for me, and cannot thank Callum enough. Callum put me forward for an Payroll Administrator with Lentells Chartered Accountants in Chard, from start to finish Callum has been professional on all aspects. I had a zoom interview with Tina, the Payroll Manager and Joanna the Payroll Supervisor, which went really well. I then had a 2nd interview with Marie the Director, and now I have a new job to start on 2nd November. Thank you so so much Callum, and cannot thank you enough.

Absolutely amazing! Zoe really listened to what I was looking for and matched me to my dream job. Lots of advice was offered throughout the process with fabulous hints and helpful tips. Thank you so much! Zoe is a superstar!
Excellent service from Henry. I would recommend JGA, specifically Henry to everybody.
1. He was clear about the expectations of the organisation in which he was recommending me to.
2. He encouraged me to do my very best throughout the interview process.
3. He ensured I was prepared and was constantly in contact to get my opinion on the process.
I would like to say that Ellen was very determined for my job request, She is very experienced, quick, polite, friendly and caring about her clients, I really appreciate for all her help, support and kindness.
Recently got offered a new job with the help of Liam Allen at JGA Recruitment. Liam supported and very helpful throughout the entire process. Much thanks to him and will highly recommend JGA services
My experience with JGA Recruit has been very positive. Steve Yardley worked closely with me throughout the recruitment process. He was always actively giving me information about any available roles and helped me prepare for interviews by highlighting relevant knowledge/information I might have needed to know. He always asked me my thoughts and opinions on different positions to try and understand what I was looking for and to find the positions which best suited my work style and preferences.
Steve was instrumental in my finding my current position and I am very thankful to him and to JGA Recruitment. I would definitely recommend JGA to anyone looking for an accounting role.
Nick and I worked together on my recent appointment. He has been an absolute pleasure to work with. He impressed me greatly with his professionalism, passion for HR/recruitment, and high efficiency. Besides his headhunting and recruitment business he’s also running and hosting two successful podcast (Payroll & HR) channels. I would certainly recommend his service to any organisations and senior/ executives. I’m confident his/JGA service will not disappoint you.
Support from the service has been amazing, regularly updating me with how things are progressing. Even after gaining employment, kept in touch to see how I’ve been settling in.
I was after a certain job role and I was struggling to find it, until my knight in shining armour FREDDY MOORHOUSE came across my CV and directed me to the perfect job which I will receive a healthy salary and couldn’t resist so I signed on the dotted line! Great communication skills, kept me up to date on everything step by step! I have already recommended him to a few of my friends and family members. Once again a big thank you to FREDDY MOORHOUSE.
I am very happy with the services Rachael O’Brien provided. She connected me with my new employer and made sure everything is going well even after employment. She really goes the extra mile to make sure everytihng is as it should be!
Can’t thank Rachael enough for all her support in finding me a role in a company that I absolutely love! Rachael has been excellent in coaching and supporting me through all stages of their interview process and ultimately helped me secure my dream job!
I worked with Nick Day and Steve Yardley at JGA and felt that firstly they understood what it was I did at my previous employer and secondly what it was I was looking for in terms of next steps. I also understand that they went the extra mile with my new employer to set up an interview as I wasn’t a natural fit for the role, which is greatly appreciated.
Freddy really was great in the process of finding me a new job, he was supportive from start to finish & managed to find me a role that fits perfectly. Couldn’t recommend highly enough!
JGA Recruitment Ltd have been a fantastic company to work with. Nick’s professionalism, attention to detail and advice was second to none. Nick provided us with a very high calibar of candidates and we are delighted with our chosen GM. We will definitely be working with JGA Recruitment again and I would highly recommend their services! Thank you!
When I was contacted by Steve from JGA I didn’t have a job so when I was offered a 12 month contract I thought why not, I can still apply for jobs but I didn’t even try. Steve and Ros ensured I was looked after well and paid on time. This was all done in a friendly but professional manner. When the 12 months were over I was quite sorry to leave to go to my permanent job. No regrets whatsoever! Thanks to you both.
A great experience with Matthew Pyne of JGA. Efficiently handled the application process and took everything through to an ultimate job offer.
Matthew kept in touch with updates regularly and was very effective when it came to sorting out some issues with the timing of some personal commitments made before the application process started.
Freddy was very helpful and made me feel at ease while I was in a stressful situation. I was matched with a good company and got the job. Thank you so much.
Great agency – professional, friendly and super prompt payers! Matthew did a great job finding me, lining up my contract and always being available if I needed to speak with him. A big thank you and hope to work with you again soon.
I have never worked with a more professional, friendly and dedicated recruiter. JGA helped me gain an amazing job, and offered support and feedback promptly throughout the process. I would highly recommend!
I was contacted by JGA Recruitment for a permanent position and Sophie was brilliant right from the start with communication of the interview details to the onboarding process, everything was handled smoothly and comfortably. Highly Recommend JGA recruitment Ltd and special thanks to Sophie for her help 🙂
JGA, especially Paul just helped me get a really good new role… process was very quick and professional… I will need to recruit some more people later in the year and will certainly use JGA and hopefully Paul to do so!
Thanks to Freddy as well who also did a very good job in keeping in touch with me while Henry was on leave.
Rachael to be blunt is an angel. She has been there for me whenever I needed her help and has matched me perfectly with my new role. She has helped me so much over the last year and always put me first. The knowledge I have gained from her has made my interview skills go through the roof and because of her my confidence is back. I would highly recommend JGA Recruitment. Thank you so much.
JGA Recruitment are very approachable and professional. I can’t speak highly enough about Zoe Lewis, a star!
It’s rare that you come across standout talent like Rachael. Very professional, she guided me every step of the way, which was a massive plus during recruitment process. She helped me to get my dream job and my career moved forward. Thank you Rachael.
Absolutely recommend JGA Recruitment Ltd, Steve Yardley’s support with placing me on my dream job was second to none. I was fully supported throughout the whole process and couldn’t be happier with the end result, thank you so much. Highly recommend indeed.
Thank you Ellen For helping me gain an apprenticeship role. You were very professional throughout the application process.
I was looking for a Payroll/HR role and Alexandra Walker approached me after finding my CV online. Alex is fairly new to her role which surprised me as she is one of the best recruitment contacts that I have ever liaised with (and i’ve liaised with many companies who just want to put you into any old role). Alex was very professional and took onboard exactly what I was looking for, her hard work and dedication made it a great experience throughout. I’m now in a perfect role which covers everything that I was looking for and more – thank you Alex!
I highly recommend JGA Recruitment! Freddy Moorhouse found me the perfect role with a fantastic company. He was extremely supportive and kept me updated throughout the entire recruitment process.
Thank you so much for all of your help Freddy!
I highly recommend JGA Recruitment!
I was looking for a Payroll role and Nabeel Qaisar approached me after finding my CV online.
Nabeel was professional and took onboard exactly what I was looking for, he was very helpful and communicated clearly throughout which made it a great experience. I have just accepted a role which is well suited to me and covers everything that I was looking for. Thank you Nabeel! 🙂
From the start Rachael has been so professional and friendly I instantly felt comfortable with the process and where I have accepted a role is fantastic I can’t thank her enough for presenting this opportunity with a great team. Would highly recommend anyone going through their recruitment process, you won’t be let down!
What a breath of fresh air JGA are!
I have dealt with many agencies over the years but none have been so helpful and understanding of my needs as Laura Richards. Genuine, professional and so easy to speak to. Won’t use another agency again.
Extremely pleased with the service from Nabeel. Utterly professional, kind & courteous. Kept me in the loop at every stage. Provided guidance & is extremely knowledgeable. Got me a fantastic role. Thank you JGA in particular thank you Nabeel
I was working with Laura and I’ve never worked with such a helpful recruiter before. Would definitely reccomend working with the company and requestion to work with laura especially 🙂
Tom made my job search a painless experience. He always ensured I was as well prepared as possible for my interviews with detailed background information on the company, the role and the people I’d be meeting. I would certainly recommend Tom and JGA to anyone looking for a job.
Many thanks for all your help.
James Gray are one of the best recruitment agencies I have ever worked with. I’ve had the experience of working two consultants there, Steve Yardley and Paul Dargarvel. Both consultants were able to understand my capabilities and only send me roles which suited my development. You always feel like they are really looking out for your best interest instead of looking at you with pound signs in their eyes.
I wish I could recommend James Gray and these consultants more.
Great Recruitment company to registered with.I would like to say thanks to Rachael O’Brien.She is very cooperative lady and help me a lot to find a job that really suits me.
Matthew Pyne was amazing throughout the recruitment process, very informative and supportive. The service was superb in helping me find an amazing role.
Steve was very professional and truthful about the job that was advertised. I felt helped and supported all the way thought the interview process and even after the job offer was made, he made sure to check in on me.
Just wishing to share my experience of working with Rachael as she guided and supported me through the whole process of interview and chasing for feedback and to ensure i received my offer letter. Fantastic service and i would recommend fully.
