About Us | Imperium Resourcing

Don't just take our word for it, here’s what your peers say...

My experience with Imperium Resourcing was very smooth. From the moment my profile was matched to the client, to the first day of starting the new appointment, I was kept informed about the progress of the opportunity. For many this may not be important, but for me, being kept in the know is great service as it stops the waiting time being unpleasant.

Henry - Category Manager

I have been very impressed with the efficiency of Imperium Resourcing. The initial phone call and then face-to-face meeting with my consultant was very good, he was so helpful and accommodating. The interview process and then the acceptance of the job were both smooth and I was kept informed throughout the whole process. The timesheet system is the easiest that I have experienced over many years as a contractor. Overall, I am very pleased that I have my new contract and very pleased that I got it through Imperium Resourcing.

Colin - Business Analyst

I would recommend anyone seeking a role in Social Care to register with Imperium Resourcing. The whole team are friendly and efficient and in particular Chris, who has worked tenaciously on my behalf. His proactive style secured an interview and role for me recently, and his thorough approach to problem solving has been much appreciated.

Joe - Commissioning Manager

Chris was proactive and on the ball and was able to secure me a management role quite quickly following our initial conversation. He is professional, personable and easy to get along with and his communication was on point throughout the matching process. Chris was always on sight at the work location and was keen to hear about any work problems that he could resolve with the client. I would definitely recommend Chris and Imperium Resourcing to other professionals in my network as a vibrant professional agency who put their clients first.

Sophia - Contracts & Commissioning Manager

My experience of Imperium has been positive throughout. My consultant consultant was able to identify a very good opportunity for me
and were very very supportive at all stages of the process. This included talking through the original opportunity and whether I was suitable for it;
helping assemble references and preparing for the interview; being supportive during the interview process; the negotiating of the contract itself; and
getting regular updates from the employer once I was in post. I would certainly recommend Imperium and use them again
