What Employers Say About Northern Rights

Below, some of the employers we’ve worked with tell us about the services we’ve provided and how we’ve supported them.

Churchill Services

Churchill services are a Cleaning Company and I work with Northern Rights to help people back into work, we have an excellent relationship working together. We have worked together getting people back into work and Alysha Cooper at Northern Rights is a God send. She finds the candidates and then organises an interview with me, she also helps so much to make sure they have all the right ID documents to apply for their DBS Enhanced to be able to work on site. Until I started working with Alysha I did struggle getting people to apply for the jobs I advertised I know that I don’t have to worry at all if I need more people to work in the college she gets it sorted straight away and this helps our company so much. I really do appreciate all the help she gives us and couldn’t do it without her.

“We’ve worked with Northern Rights for many years and have a good success rate with recruitment and retainment of staff through support and encouragement. This in turn has given staff the confidence to thrive in the work place which is very rewarding as an employer.

“Northern Rights have not only supported the new recruits but they’ve also supported Churchill by doing all the ground work and putting forward suitable candidates for the positions available.

“It’s a pleasure working with Northern Rights, their work and commitment is making a massive difference to people’s lives.”

“We’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Northern Rights Social Enterprise and their dedication to sourcing suitable candidates has been invaluable to us. Their pre-screening process ensures that we find individuals who are qualified and share our company values. Their provision of interview facilities at no cost has streamlined our hiring process significantly. Thanks to their assistance, we’ve been able to build a reliable commercial cleaning team year on year, contributing greatly to the smooth operation of our facilities management services. We highly recommend Northern Rights Social Enterprise for their commitment to fostering mutually beneficial partnerships and their unwavering support in facilitating our staffing needs.”

Metec

“Metec is an aluminium foundry which designs and manufactures sacrificial anodes. We have been based in South Shields since 2017 but were finding it difficult to source experienced casting staff with the skill set we required. By chance, we came across a Job Fair that was being advertised by Northern Rights on social media and thought it could be the ideal opportunity for them to assist us in widening our search for suitable employees.

“Northern Rights had a helpful and understanding team at hand to work with us to clarify our business needs. This enabled them to quickly put forward suitably vetted candidates that would be a good fit to our business.

“The main appeal to using Northern Rights was their vison to make a positive difference, put back into the local community and ultimately improve their users life chances. The ongoing support they have given to us and our new employee has proved that their vision is working. We are delighted that Northern Rights have assisted us to fill a gap in our recruitment as well as saving the business time, money and effort. We look forward to continuing a good business relationship with them.”

The team is amazing, we have monthly catch up calls to discuss our jobs and their requirements which has led to the excellent candidates they have provided, who have gone on to be successful with us here at DXC Technology.

“We are looking forward to continuing to work with Northern Rights and have a number of projects in the pipeline which, with their support, will further enhance our business.”
