"I’m thrilled with BigBlue! They helped me secure a fantastic role at a great company back in 2023, where I spent three very successful years. More recently, when I decided to relocate from London back to Spain, they once again found the perfect opportunity for me. What really stands out is how well they take the time to understand your experience, career goals, and personal circumstances. They are true professionals who know how to match candidates with the right companies, making the whole recruitment process smooth and stress-free."
"Will stands out in the world of recruitment, super focused on exactly what I need, and doesn't waste time. He and his exceptional team know how exactly to manage their client base and take the time to learn and understand the clients needs. I would feel comfortable recommending Will and Bigblue to all of my contacts, very likeable and extremely professional."
"Charlie Wheeler has been very helpful for my own career development. He has demonstrated a great dedication and professionalism. Moreover I have been positively surprised by how quickly he is acting and leveraging his own network. I highly recommend Big Blue search"
"Recruiters can be very cheesy and gringy especially when you work in a specialist field. I was really impressed with BB's approach and attitude to finding my next role. Rather than just asking for a cv they took the time understand my skill sets and what I could bring to some of the companies they work with. It ended up in the creation of a new a company which is booming and it all started with Zac and Sam's proativie approach. I could not recommend the team enough as a candidate and now as a business."
"It is rare to find someone as motivated and enthusiastic as Angus Pringle. His positive attitude and strong work ethic were contagious, and he always brought fresh ideas to the table to motivate me during the job hunting process. He consistently went above and beyond to make sure we met our objectives."
"I worked closely with Matt in securing my new role. He is extremely professional, enthusiastic and engaging. His friendly approach made the transition effortless and would have no hesitation in recommending Matt and the team at Bigblue"
"Angus was responsible for placing me in my latest role. Having come across several recruiters in my 20+ years in the industry (some good, some bad), I can confidently Angus is among the very best I have dealt with. He came across as genuine and trustworthy and is an excellent communicator unlike so many who just seem to collect CVs and then go missing. Obviously we all know how recruiters earn their fees, but I got the impression that Angus’ main priority was finding the best role for me and not the biggest fee for himself. I would have no hesitation in recommending Angus’ services to others."
"Having just finished my second week at my new role which I already love, Matt helped me get my foot in the door and gave me great advice & encouragement throughout. His communication was brilliant, and helped me through the whole process. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a role in D&B! Thanks Matt, you’re a star!"
"Having worked with Will and the extended team, you don’t need to look any further than Will to either further you career or simply find a new role. Always keep you updated and discuss opportunities before trying to place you. He won’t put you into a potential role just to keep his numbers up.. 5 Star service."

Do you handle compliance for temporary workers?
Yes. We take care of the checks and paperwork that come with temporary hiring, from right-to-work and qualifications to the relevant certifications for site-based roles. The right people arrive ready to work, so you can focus on delivery with the detail handled in the background.
How does IR35 affect temporary and contract hiring?
IR35 is the UK’s off-payroll working rules, which determine whether a contractor should be taxed as an employee. Depending on the arrangement and the size of your business, the responsibility for assessing status can sit with you as the end client. We are experienced in compliant contract hiring and will help you navigate it smoothly, though for a formal status determination you should always take specialist tax or legal advice.
What sectors do you specialise in?
We go deep in design and fit-out, covering offices, high-end residential, hospitality, retail and heritage. We also recruit widely across the built environment, from site labour to board level, so you have one partner for the whole team.
