Thompson & Terry Recruitment is an independent Abingdon-based recruitment agency with a real difference in that we apply a headhunting approach to typically recruitment agency level vacancies. We are a boutique full-service consultancy, with a key focus on sourcing and placing candidates in Sales Jobs, Marketing Jobs, Office Jobs and Administrative Jobs, across Oxfordshire and nationally. Whilst most of the roles we work on tend to fall into these areas, if we can understand a role, we can normally help.
We are dedicated to building strong and personal relationships with our clients and candidates, allowing us to match our people to our jobs as accurately as possible. Our team provide a headhunting approach to typically recruitment agency level vacancies and we vouch to only send candidates to our clients that we would personally employ ourselves and are really proud of the statistics that we have achieved as a result of this approach. Over 80% of the first CV that we submit to our clients successfully get the job compared to the significantly lower national average of circa 5%. Furthermore, 93% of these candidates remain with our client after at least 9 months of employment.
Mission Statement
From the very beginning, our goal has been to provide a transparent, honest and ethical recruitment solution to candidates, clients and our own staff. We vow to only submit a candidate to a client if we would personally employ them ourselves. Our ambition is to grow together as a business, as individuals and as part of the wider community.

Charity
Whilst our day-to-day job is recruitment, we are always looking for ways to get involved with the local community. Currently, we work closely with the Oxfordshire-based charity SeeSaw, a non-profit organisation that provides support services to children and young adults who are suffering from grief or bereavement.
Our Managing Director, Ben, is a Corporate Ambassador for SeeSaw and over the past year, we have taken part in various fundraising events in aid of the charity, including winning the JACKfm 5-a-side football tournament!
