    About Castlefield Recruitment


    Castlefield Recruitment is a leading recruitment partner operating in the Public, Private and Professional Services sectors. We provide specialist recruitment services on a permanent, contract and interim basis.

    Experience in our earlier careers left us questioning the way in which the recruitment industry was heading – leading to the belief that there had to be a different way. So, in 2013, three founding Directors established Castlefield on the principles of professionalism, honesty and the delivery of first-rate customer service. We are passionate about ensuring that all Castlefield employees understand the balance of matching our customers’ needs to a simple and cost-effective resourcing solution.

    The key to this service is our proactive search methodology. This ensures thorough knowledge of the talent pool, excellence in delivery and long-term value – all part of our commitment to building lasting relationships.
