Cubed is one of the best, if not the best, recruitment agencies on the market. Thanks to the team, I was able to secure a permanent position in a great company. The whole recruitment process went smoothly and quickly. My only regret is that I didn't encounter them earlier. 5-star service, full of professionalism and helpful advice. Can't recommend them enough.

L WasilewskiCandidate

We worked with Cubed for over three years and have recently re-engaged to support another long term and business critical project. They supported the business with setting up our RPO and therefore worked closely with both the HR and management teams. Cubed take the time to understand our recruitment needs and in particular the niche skills required in our business
