Compass Point Recruitment
An experienced Recruitment Consultant with four years specialisation within Industry and Manufacturing. Focused on East Anglia I have supplied some of the largest household names with both temporary & permanent staff. Placing key staff into the industrial sector: inclusive of Supply Chain, Reach truck Drivers, Counterbalance Drivers and Machine Operators.

I moved into Recruitment post University and teaching abroad and have an understanding of cultural expectations which often helps when placing candidates into the right work environment. I chose to work with Compass Point Recruitment as an ethical agency; we work with candidates and clients offering the best possible solution for their needs.

Having spoken to both James and Paige they really impressed me with how they would listen to my abilities and the type of work I was seeking. They were also very personable and easy to speak to.
Paige was an absolute asset in helping me get a job I know I will love. I highly recommend this agency for both employee and employer.

Paige O'Connell at Compass Point - hands-down the most supportive recruitment agent I have ever come across! She helped me obtain a great job within weeks of posting my CV, and supported me every step of the way (interview, trial day & switching employers). Professional, enthusiastic, quick in response and a truly kind person - someone who is sincerely out to help you get the desired outcome. Recommending to my job-seeking friends and to anyone who wants to deal with a high-quality goal-oriented professional.

I own a design and manufacture company is Suffolk and have used Compass Point regularly over the years for both temporary placements or permanent members of staff. We had a lady join us via compass point a few months ago that has turned out to be one of the best members of staff we have had in years. We would never have found her without Compass Point and whilst there are fees to pay, it is worth every penny when you get it right. We will continue to use their services in the future. Lovely people too, which helps.

Compass Point have been brilliant to work with. Paige O'Connell was accommodating and always reassuring. I felt comfortable and safe in her hands. Paige would always listen to my opinions and views and throughout the process it felt as if she truly had my best interests at heart. Whatever the news, I believe she would always make it positive. Thank You Paige!

Totally professional - finger on the pulse!
I wanted a better work/life balance and was looking to change from full time to a part time position and had been searching in vain for several months.
Despite never actually managing to meet Annette in person (due to car issues), she found exactly what I was looking for.
Through email and telephone she managed to immediately match me up to my dream job. Four weeks down the line I have a permanent contract with the most wonderful employers and I couldn't be happier.
Annette is such a bubbly, positive and warm person. She has a gift for matching by

I recently relocated from London to Bury St Edmunds, and was delighted when I found this local recruitment agency. When I went to register with Compass Point, I really felt that the consultant saw my potential, understood my career path and I left feeling good about my choices. I have been to loads of recruitment agencies in the past and I know this is not always the case. Can definitely recommend this agency if you’re looking for local knowledge and skilled consultants.

Awful, signed up with them February 9th, had a very poor interview with their guy. It's now 29th March, and in that time, have only had contact with them once, and that was because I called them.(early in March). Their guy (Keiran), told me he had a meeting with a client on the Friday morning, and promised to call me in the afternoon. Guess what,… no call. Was promised a copy of my CV in their format, it never materialised. From the forced conversation I had when I called them, it seems all they do is email your CV out, and hope for a response. Thankfully, I have found a job using another
