About Northreach

Northreach is a recruitment business placing contract, permanent and temporary professionals across the UK for organisations in the Financial Services, eCommerce, Tech and Public sectors… and beyond.

We’re small enough to deliver the personal touch and commitment it takes while being experienced enough to meet tough demands.

As a family business, at Northreach we really do work as a team. With our reputaiton on the line, we genuinely care about delivering results and so work in harmony, not as individuals with competing agendas. Our directors are entirely “hands on” recruitment consultants that care about the people they place and remain heavily involved in the recruitment process.

Clients know we’re the people representing them.

  • Northreach took the time to listen to my requirements. From this understanding their candidate selection efforts minimised interview overhead as I received candidates fully meeting my criteria. Being proactive through onboarding also ensured myself and candidates were kept up-to-date. A pleasure to work with.

    Paul – Programme Manager
  • Great guys who really go that extra mile, understanding both candidate and client needs. Always easily contactable and keeps promises.

    Paul – Customer Service Manager
  • Sam and the guys at Northreach really know their stuff and have a great handle on their market. For every role I have given Sam and his team I have received 3 quality CV’s within 12 hours. All candidates are extremely well vetted and qualified.

    Northreach have been invaluable to me since I started working with them as if you give them a role you can be assured that it’s getting due attention, especially those tricky one day turn arounds that we all love so much.

    Jim – HR Manager
  • It’s fair and accurate to say being represented by Northreach was a pleasant surprise given previous experience with other recruiters. Honest and proactive communication at every step means I’d not hesitate to recommend. 10/10.

    Daniel – Learning & Development Manager
  • Northreach are exceptional professionals who helped secure a great role. Their guidance was essential and moreover, Sam showed a genuine interest in what I’m seeking rather than selling me an opportunity. I believe anyone looking for a new job should feel more than lucky having Northreach as their recruiter.

    Panos – Head of Customer Service
  • Friendly, efficient and professional… Northreach are those kind of guys that will call on Friday to let you know about an opportunity, getting you an interview for Monday and you start on Tuesday!

    Plamen – Senior Developer
  • We have used several different recruitment agencies in the past and never been particularly impressed. Northreach provided several fantastic candidates which lead to us employing the member of staff we were looking for. We have always used Northreach from that point and they have always delivered.

    James – Director
  • I’ve been impressed by Northreach’s professionalism and the speed and flexibility they demonstrate. Extremely efficient and knowledgeable, taking care to really understand the requirements for each role they recruit for. Clearly taking pride in their work, I would not hesitate to recommend him.

    Jennifer – HR Director
  • Hard-working and engaging professionals who are natural recruiters. Managed the process and when unforeseen circumstances arose they quickly took care of them. I would highly recommend Northreach to both job searchers and companies looking for candidates.

    Connor - Commodities Trader
  • Northreach was an exceptional experience — from initial contact until I secured my role at the bank. Always looking to maximise my chances, Ben went above-and-beyond to ensure I was prepared. Approachable and professional there was genuine interest in my progression. Strongly recommended.

Harry Arnold, Recruitment Consultant

When I joined Northreach, I was looking for a company that provided massive career opportunity, a sense of being and an environment that I could really enjoy with other like-minded people. Since joining the company, I have developed my knowledge, sharpened my skills and taken on new training techniques that has helped me develop as a recruitment consultant.

James Prentice, Recruitment Consultant

I joined Northreach as their first employee and have seen the business grow from strength to strength. Sam and Ben have given me fantastic support from day one and the license to be the Recruitment Consultant that I want to be. It’s not difficult to feel invested in an ethos which values people.

Ben Ingram, Director

I’ve been in the Recruitment game since I was 19, rolling back to 2010. Prior to that, I turned my hand to a couple of different sales and consultative roles, including working for a big name in the card processing and payments solutions industry. I learned my recruitment trade at a global leader in the industry, where I worked my way through the ranks from a Trainee to leading a team of Consultants, managing a major client, whilst juggling a base of 40-50 contractors at any one time. Having mastered the ropes, I decided to set up our business, Northreach, with my business partner (and brother), Sam, in 2015.

 

At Northreach, I often find myself wearing a number of hats, including chief tea maker and banter supplier! It’s also my responsibility to ensure our team is motivated, we’re growing as a unit, delivering a first-class service to our candidates and clients and above all having fun, enjoying the work we do.

Sam Ingram, Director

The people we work with voice their ideas and constantly strive to innovate which is exactly what Northreach represents. We love what we do and passionate about attracting the right people for the right job.

For me, Northreach is everything, for as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to run my own business. My experience in recruitment and the people I have worked with throughout the years have helped me fine tune my skills and push my abilities to ensure Northreach strive for greatness and provide a great service to anyone that is looking to hire or looking for their next job.

You will often find me at HQ brainstorming the next steps for the business and how we keep our offering fresh. Opinions welcome!
