Services
Set up in 2014 by Directors Jason Hodgson and Simon Glencross, NXT is an independent recruitment agency based in Carlisle, Cumbria. Jason, who had previously worked in recruitment, consolidated his experience to develop his passion - a vision of how excellence in recruitment should truly be conducted.
We are a dedicated team here at NXT. Together we have a wealth of industry experience including: Sales, Business Development, ICT, Hospitality & Catering, Customer Service, Marketing and Finance. Throughout my career I have always been a people person. My ability to form strong interpersonal and business relationships has been key to my success in recruitment.
NXT offers various recruitment solutions to suit the needs of your business and the nature of the role you are looking to fill. The thorough and dedicated recruitment process we have developed, is offered to all clients, irrespective of the staffing solution selected.

Some clients may not require all elements of the service - if for example they already have a set job description they wish to use, whilst others may require extensive support if they want us to target a particular specialist candidate base, recruit internationally or conduct the entire interview process on their behalf.
At NXT, we are committed to delivering an excellent service to you at all times and we live by a strong set of values. Understanding your requirements and delivering upon them whilst adhering to our code of conduct is incredibly important to us. We want to be the first people you think of when you're either looking to recruit or when you're in need of career advice.
We work with some of the best employers in Cumbria, from small family businesses to huge multi-nationals. Each one can offer something different to the job seeker, so whatever you're searching for, we're sure to have a range of options. We spend considerable time getting to know our businesses, forging relationships and understanding the organisations and their culture.

I went to register and was met by a young guy who, although pleasant enough, really wasn't interested in any of the answers I gave to his questions. Bearing in mind I have worked in retail management, the licensed trade management, marketing, business development and customer service. I am educated to post graduate degree level and willing to work any hours in any job anywhere between Lancaster and Edinburgh in a temporary or permanent position. I have heard nothing in 6 weeks, not even the e mail that they allegedly send you advertising any vacancies. On top of this, as I got up to leave after

Well what can I say. The NXT Recruitment team is one amazing team. I have work for them a few months between projects, and was looked after so well. Responded to my e-mails after hours when I had questions for them. This is the first recruitment company I have worked for that made me feel like I was part of them. Emma got me the position I wanted, actually needed, followed up on a regular basis to ensure that I was still fine and happy in my position. I will work with them again at any time.

I have been been very impressed with the team at NXT Recruitment in Carlisle. After contacting them about a local position, the communication and professionalism exceeded my expectations and thanks to their efforts and coordination, I was successful in my application.
Thanks to the whole team but specifically Thomas and Simon who helped during the process!

I wasn’t with NXT very long as Thomas managed to find the ideal new role for me almost immediately. He was so helpful and responsive throughout and even checked in after I started the new job to see how things were going, which was lovely. Such a great service, can’t thank NXT and Thomas enough as I’m now 8 months in with a great company. Highly recommend!

After numerous unsuccessful attempts at applying for jobs I contacted Emma at NXT. She was friendly and patient and helped me reevaluate my CV and Cover letter. Literally within the month I landed a full time career and now thanks to emma I also help students prepare there CVs and cover letters. Highly recommend NXT recruitment.

Had a great experience with NXT working with Thomas. He found me a place to start a 3 month probation which has lead to me being kept on and have been there for over 10 months now. I had one interview for a different job which I didn’t get but Thomas was quick to get me another interview for the job I am in now. Overall great experience, very helpful and quick responses. Would recommend as I wouldn’t have the job I have now without them

You call and leave a message and nobody calls you back and then suddenly the job disappears off their website. Not exactly great service

Can't speak highly enough. Finding work initially was almost instant and after I had started work any issues that did arise were sorted out by Ben straight away. Fantastic agency!!!

Can't say enough about NXT. Emma and Jason were fantastic! I had milled around looking for a new job for a long while and these two couldn't do enough for me, even when I was a huge pest! Professional and courteous, if you're looking for a recruitment firm to find you your next job use NXT Recruitment! I still keep in contact with Emma and she's helped me settle in to my new role with the same professionalism I've come to expect and know from this team.
Thanks again guys

Initially NXT were very on the ball and found me employment fast - but that’s where their support stopped. I was constantly chasing them up for payslips - it would even take several messages just to get a reply (I could see when they had read the message and chose to ignore it, this happened several times)
Its obvious from the way they treat their agents that the company is still in its early stages and needs to improve massively on the way they support the people that are earning them money.
Would not work for NXT again.
