I've worked for Forde Recruitment Ltd since Septemeber 2022 with the occasional break due to my circumstances changing. Forde are very accomadating and work around you and your availability the best they can which was amazing as im a mum of 3 and childcare can be a issue at times but due to the amazing flexabily I discovered what days worked best for me and my family. They are very helpful and always just a quick call away to help in anything you need help with, i have always been paid correctly and on time.The sign up process was quick and easy. I was in work within days of first contact and there was always shifts available for me.Forde would also always do the very best they could to secure any additional shifts I may have wanted from week to week.I have now secured a permanent position with DPD and would like to say thank you to everyone at Forde, especially Cesca who personally dealt with me the most.Highly recommend,
I was retired for some 8 moths having worked from 16 to 66, and felt I needed stimulation. I applied to Forde Recruitment and was accepted. I have thoroughly enjoyed working for Forde whom supply agency drivers for a number of companies. I have received steady work at both road driving and auction house driving, and have always received payment on time and found the Forde staff easily accessible for any assistance needed. You certainly are not guaranteed full time work but found sufficient work for my needs. I am now moving on to pastures new, and would like to thank Forde Recruitment for looking after me. Many thanks Dave
Good things to be said. I've enjoyed my time at Forde as a vehicle delivery driver.HR are excellent especially payroll who really look after you even going as far as to chasing you up if you've forgotten to put in your pay slip.The role itself is quite interesting. Before I found this role, I was looking at similar roles and they all required you to make your own travel arrangements. With this company you're dropped off at your vehicle, picked up once you've delivered your vehicle and then dropped off at your next vehicle.All in all, I've enjoyed my time at Forde and enjoyed the job.
I had the pleasure of working as a driver with Forde Recruitment Ltd., and it was a fantastic experience. I learned a great deal and always felt supported. The work environment was superb, and I consistently received excellent support from all the staff I interacted with.I would like to especially mention Claire McIlwaine, the Finance Director, who has been incredibly supportive in all my needs. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have worked with them.Unfortunately, I had to leave the position due to personal reasons, but I would not hesitate to return if they accepted me back. It was a wonderful experience, and there are very few places where I can genuinely say I would eagerly work again with all my heart and enthusiasm.
I was new to the town, as an immigrant from another country its hard to get a proper job in Uk job market. Thanks to Forde Recruitment i have been placed in a really good company in UK based on my previous experience with a well balanced work culture, anytime available services from Forde recruitment is to be mentioned, now im permanently posted in the company thankyou for the support.
I can highly recommend working for Forde Recruitment Ltd. All staff members are approachable and any queries are dealt with promptly. They provide regular work and wages are always paid on time.
After working 21 years for the same company i needed a change. I signed up with Forde and must say what a FANTASTIC company to work with. All the people i dealt with at Forde were extremely helpful. When you first start with them you may only get a couple of shifts but don’t lose faith. Once you get into the swing of things the work can come thick and fast with a wide variety available if you want it. One day working in a car auction the next collecting and delivering vehicles to sites across the country. After nearly two years with Forde I have been taken on as a permanent driver for one of the company’s and could not be happier. Thank you Forde recruitment for ALL your help and support ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I have worked for Ford Recruiment since November 2023 an found the whole team very professional and polite, I always got paid on time and any expenses were paid within a week. I loved being a diver for Ford and would highly recommend them. In particular Claire McIlwaineFinance DirectorThanks Claire
Excellent recruitment firm, great staff. Kept me busy with plenty of work. Very flexible and an easy to communicate with. Richard Haines, thanks again for all your help and support. Highly recommend Forde recruitment.
Absolute joke of a company,they advertised for drivers, then the only work they offered in 2 weeks was 2 x 4 hour shifts each week, when I had the audacity to question how can I make a living doing 2 x 4 hour shifts they actually went and cancelled one of them??? Well if anyone can get by working 8 hours per week good luck to you,don't trust this lot!!!
Having recently been made redundant I needed a part time flexible role which would allow me to work whilst giving me the freedom to search for a full time permanent position in my desired field. I really enjoyed my time with Forde, the whole team at Forde were incredibly welcoming and helpful, especially the vehicle inspectors, drivers, payroll team and booking team. Despite only being with the team for a short period of time I will look back at this business with great fondness.
Very efficient and friendly staff. Always keep you informed and up to date. Nothing is too much trouble. Having worked for a couple of agencies in the past I find Forde the best.
Your booked in to work all week, but they do that to everyone then choose who will work its a joke. Always stood down one day before your due to go into work. When you get fed up of been stood down and look for work somewhere else. Then they get pissed off that your on availability but don't go in 1 day a week when there desperate for someone.Most of these 5 star reviews are fake. They dont care about you. Speak down to you like your nothing. Don't waste your time
Forde Recruitment is the best agency to work for in sheffield. Josh has been great to work with and has got me a permanent role with a reputable company. Thanks Josh

It such a wonderful company to work with, they have lovely staffs and put their workers and clients happiness at the fore front. One of the their prestigious staff that works tireless and diligent is Miss Cesca.Overall, I would always chose to work with Forde company over and over again.
The staff are really lovely and very helpful! A big thank you to Cesca for helping me get a new role that was very close by to home. She’s absolutely wonderful, understanding and super supportive 😊
After falling in to a position where I was out of work and looking for my next opportunity in my career I dealt with Josh at Forde Recruitment who helped me secure a position with my current company. Josh was informative, easily contactable and always kept me up to date with the progress of my application, interviews, feedback and eventual offer. Fantastic service and would certainly recommend.
As a semi retired person who has worked in corporate roles as well as owning a business Forde recruitment has given me a leash of life as I have always enjoyed in the motor trade! They have given me the opportunity to enjoy the ‘behind the scenes’ in working with various roles and great people! The hours are flexible to suit your lifestyle and I want to say thank you for this opportunity!
I am happy with the services that forde provide, the staff are kind and caring and will allways try there best to help in any situation. For example when i first started i was working a couple days a week but after talking to the staff they have got me more hours consistently and when i wasnt able to make it into a shift they offered me transport to work and back. 10 out of 10 from me ive had no issues at all.
Great place to work. Richard Haines has always been extremely helpful and always got me jobs when needed. Good mix of jobs at different places and mostly ranged from 3-5 days a week depending on my availability which suited me.
What do you do when you're in you late 50's or into your 60's and you find that your private pension isn't giving you enough to pay the bills as much as you had hoped? Work possibilities begin to dry up at this age....trust me on this. So, what can you do? As long as you can drive a car and walk it is simple..... just get in touch with Forde Recruitment. They aren't ageist at all as many of their drivers are in their 60's.In the 7 months of being employed by Forde, I found the staff to be friendly, helpful and accommodating to the hours I wanted to work. I never suffered a late payment like I have with some other agencies, even if I forgot to send my timesheet in on time.I have now been taken on full-time by the company that employed Forde to employ me.....RESULT!Give Forde a try.....they are the best agency I have worked for.
As a retiree and part-time delivery and collection driver I cannot speak highly enough of Forde. They have provided a highly enjoyable role, working with some great people on a highly flexible basis. I work 1-3 days per week and get a mix of social interaction and independence on each day I work. It is stress free and non-pressured, an excellent role for a retiree. Thanks to all at Forde for the opportunity.
I love these guys end of story..I can't even lie , I'm touched beyond words ..I'm beyond proud to work for these people and rep the Forde name.I'll continue to give 150% on any mission they call and send me out on and continue to put pride and pay attention to detail in all I do while I'm apart of this company .Their just beatiful people who do things by the book.I couldn't have asked for more in my working life .
I can only offer praise for the excellent way Forde operatesOver the last 10 years I have worked with them twice before and they are 5 star in my opinion and would recommend mend them to everyoneThank you Vince
I've worked for Forde Recruitment for just over a year and a half. It has been a breeze always shown to be very helpfull with any questions i had before joining and finding me placements. Office staff very helpfull and friendly, only had to ask if I needed to. I am now permanently placed.So thank you all at Forde for your hard work and continued support 👍👍 👍
I've worked for Forde for just over 2 years now and my time is sadly coming to an end.This company have been nothing short of brilliant to me.The sign-up was quick, easy and I was fortunate enough to get work very quickly with them, I would definitely recommend Forde to anyone looking into getting in the automotive/logistics tradeBig shout out to the Payroll team and Richard, they've both been utterly amazing and helped me in so many ways, from the bottom of my heart, thank you
After spending 6 months with Forde thanks to them I have now progressed into full time employment great company friendly respectful and professional highly recommended
I was retired when I originally applied to Forde Recruitment 2 and a half years ago, I was looking for a new challenge after several years wondering what to do,initially working in a compound then moving on to moving cars around the Country. Forde Recruitment staff very friendly, you cannot fault them, very efficient, if timesheet's are correct you are always paid the following week. The only negative, is some individuals you work for ( not Forde's) IE the actual Companies, treat you like the lowest of the low, no respect and poor Supervisory skills, hence the reason I left, I will miss the social aspect, getting on with almost everyone BUT, this was nothing at all to do with Forde Recruitment, although they were given my feedback when leaving. Again, thank you to all at Forde Recruitment, as I always said, PLEASE keep safe and well.Kind Regards Graham Coleman
I have worked for forde recruitment for the past year and I can only say what a pleasure it has been working for such a professional and well run agency. I would like to thank you Cesca especially for the support you gave me when my brother passed away last year. Thank you so muchGrant Pickard
I have worked for Forde Recruitment as a HGV Class 1 driver for just over a year and two month's now. The whole process of signing up with them and doing the weekly work was so easy and very efficiently done. From the first week I started with Forde they put me on with a major chilled food manufacturer and the hours and pay where very good. Every week Richard Haines would text my shift's to me on a Monday for the work for the following week. What I though was nice is that Richard Haines also kept in contact with me weekly to make sure I was ok and that everything was ok at the company I was working for. I could not fault Richard as every week we spoke he was always very professional, efficient and very polite on the phone. Most weeks at Forde there was plenty of work with some week's you could get an extra shift on the spot due to last minute sickness. The girl's in the office where very good, polite and very efficient as I never had any week where my wages or Holiday pay was wrong. Also if you wanted to put some Holidays in or had a question about anything they the girl's where very prompt and polite in getting back to you. My time at Forde was great and I enjoyed it. It even resulted in a full time job with the major food manufacturer I was working for in the end. I can not thank them all enough. Thank you FORDE.
I have worked with Forde recruitment over the past year and they are very friendly and accomodating as I have health issuesI would thoroughly recommend working for them as they pay on time and offered me the variety of work which I enjoyed
That was my second time when I was working for Forde recruitment. Some time ago I used to work for them and this year when I really need a job in January. Very kind people to cooperate with. They put me back into the system in one day so another I got a shift. Great team of professionals that they know what to do. They are lead by example !
Forde does the recruitment on point, been with them for a few good years, on and off as the job assignment depends on the company which hires you through Forde. I was not let down once with payment. They might get a short notice cancellation of the shift, nevertheless bare in mind it is not them who have the right to cancel workers, it's the company you be send to work at and their demands. Very friendly staff and absolute stars here in Sheffield. You might have notice that the labour market is facing a lot of issues, cost cutting choices that are not very pleasant. Either way, I suggest you give them a chance, meanwhile have a plan B ready as well and you will make it through. In this day and age you can hardly rely on any company and recruitment agencies does what they are here for. Provide opportunities if there are any left.
I started working for Forde Recruitment almost 5 years ago and found them to be extremely helpful, professional and good at what they do. You have the freedom to pick and choose when you want to work and you also accrue holidays depending on the amount of hours worked. They also operate a pension scheme. I have just started working full-time for one of the companies I was carrying out work for on behalf of Forde so this is also something that people can benefit from. All in all I can highly recommend Forde Recruitment.
Would highly recommend to any driver looking for work. Weekly pay not an umbrella company everything in house and wages spot on PAYE. holiday pay. Thanks to the team for everything. Regards to the team DRD
Great company to work through always there when you need them supportive friendly staff
Prompt weekly pay. Flexible and friendly staff. Very good availability of work in different locations!
I enjoyed working for FORDE Recruitment. The Staff were always so pleasant and helpful. In my Four year's working for them, the Staff so friendly, never once had any issue with them.The only reason I left, I was offered Full Time Employment.Best Regards, Paul Andrews .
