I started working at Caritas in June 2018 in the Newcastle office. It is a great environment to work in with excellent support available whenever you need it. They have a brilliant commission structure so there is the potential to earn a lot of money on top of your basic salary if you work hard. They hold a lot of fun events in London which allows the workers to get together and socialise which is always fun.

I would really recommend my agent Dan Bradford - he's really proactive, hardworking and always has time for me. He has managed to get me the kind of jobs I've asked for and I haven't had to use another agency.

As a newbie to the world of contacting, Ben at Caritas was a god send. Helpful, supportive and patient. (A welcome relief from the impersonal interactions I'd had with 1 or 2 other recruiters). Thankyou Caritas!
