What Clients say about us

Mike is a real people person, with the ability to develop and motivate a team to achieve exceptional results.

Neil AArea Sales Manager

Choosing Pivotal People Care was an easy decision for me after hearing consistently positive feedback from colleagues in the industry. I was seeking a recruitment agency that not only understood the healthcare sector but also prioritised the human elements of hiring and Pivotal fully delivered on both fronts. My experience with their recruitment services was seamless and supportive from start to finish. They were highly responsive, transparent, and genuinely invested in finding us the right candidate for role. They took the time to truly understand what we do as a business, what are trying to achieve and most importantly our core values, which made all the difference. What I appreciated most about my experience was their professionalism paired with a personal touch. They made me feel like more than just a client, they treated me like a partner in the process. Their communication was always very clear and timely, which helped build trust throughout our journey. I would absolutely recommend Pivotal People Care to others. Their dedication to both candidates and clients certainly stands out in a crowded market. They’re not just filling positions but they’re building meaningful, lasting placements. Thank you, Pivotal People Care, for your outstanding support and customer service.
