How we help employers
Whether you need a permanent QP or an experienced CQV contractor, you deal with one consultant who knows your site and your standards.
Permanent recruitment
We interview and screen every candidate before you see a CV, so your shortlist is short and every name on it is worth meeting.
Contractors
Experienced CQV, automation, process and quality contractors who join your team for the length of the assignment, screened and ready to start.
Fixed-term agency workers

Contractor management

From the moment Rachael contacted me about an available position that might be of interest to me, she was nothing but supportive, helpful, and amazing in helping me apply and get the position. Rachael helped me prep for the interview, and if I ever had any questions, her responses were quick and detailed. As a result, I got the position, and it wouldn’t have been possible without Rachael’s help. Even after securing the role, she kept in touch to ensure I had everything I needed and was settling in well.
I would highly recommend Rachael as a recruitment consultant. I have been in talks with Rachael over the last couple of months, and she always reached out with any roles that may be suitable and communicated very openly and clearly. Rachael is one of the best consultants I have worked with over the years. Her ongoing support, professionalism, and dedication made a real difference, and I truly appreciate the effort she put in to help me find the right opportunity.
I would highly recommend reaching out to Helen if you are looking for a new role. Helen reached out to me on LinkedIn with an opportunity that would help me progress in my career in payroll. Helen walked me through everything before my interview for the role and checked in to make sure I felt I was prepared enough and had everything I needed. Helen continues to check in, in the lead up to starting my new role and I look forward to continuing to work with Helen in the future.
Brenda is an absolute pleasure to deal with, as I do so on an ongoing basis. She is extremely professional, friendly, and always contactable for any queries or issues. I would highly recommend her as a contact, as she will go the extra mile to understand and meet your needs. Thanks again, Brenda—I look forward to continuing to work with you in the future. Her ability to ensure smooth communication and provide valuable insights truly sets her apart.
Brenda was extremely supportive to me during the job application process, checking in routinely and providing much-needed advice and support. Thanks to Brenda and the team at Aphex, I secured a great opportunity that aligns with my career goals. She was always available to provide guidance and reassurance, which made the entire process seamless. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and am truly grateful for her assistance.
Helen was extremely helpful and friendly from the first moment I spoke to her regarding the job opportunity. She explained the process to me very well and provided constant support from the interview stage right through to when I started in the role. She made the transition very smooth and always makes herself available to answer any queries. Helen’s dedication and willingness to go above and beyond made a real difference, and I am very appreciative of all her support.
I have recently worked with Helen to secure a role after returning to Ireland. Helen went above and beyond to make me feel supported, ensuring I was happy with every step of the process. She is a pleasure to deal with and incredibly talented at what she does. I couldn’t recommend her enough. From start to finish, her attention to detail and personal approach made the job search process much less stressful and far more enjoyable.
