Working with Richard at Travail Employment in Bristol has been an absolute pleasure. He has provided us with high‑quality temporary staff who are reliable, professional, and extremely well‑matched to the needs of our service.
Richard takes the time to understand our requirements in detail and always communicates clearly and promptly. His proactive approach and commitment to finding the right people has made a significant positive difference to our staffing operations.
The staff supplied have all integrated seamlessly into our teams, demonstrating capability, flexibility, and a strong work ethic from day one. It’s clear that Richard not only understands the market but genuinely cares about delivering an exceptional service.
Overall, Richard has been an outstanding partner to work with, and I would highly recommend him and Travail Employment Bristol for any staffing needs

Excellent Candidate Vetting Process

We've worked with Travail on several hires and have consistently been impressed by their professionalism and effectiveness. What really sets them apart is the thoroughness of their vetting and qualifying process. Every candidate they put forward has been an excellent fit—not just in terms of skills, but also in alignment with our company culture.
Their team clearly takes the time to understand both the role and the business, which makes the recruitment process smooth and efficient. It's rare to find an agency where every candidate feels like a strong contender, but Travail delivers exactly that.
Highly recommended for any business looking for a recruitment partner who truly adds value.

Thank you for leaving your review of our services. We believe in being thorough in the vetting process, this pays dividends to the potential employer and employee. We thank employers who, like yourselves, engage us to perform a service - rather than pitting us in a race against other recruiters who perhaps do not invest in you, your business and vacancy as we do. Thank you once again.

Top Rated Service

I have had the pleasure in dealing with Richard from Travail from both a candidates and potential employers point of view. After successfully securing the position that I was placed for I worked with that company for a number of years. This company had used Travail for all their recruitment requirements. After leaving this company many years later, I was then in the position to approach Richard with available positions for my new employer. I can't praise Richard highly enough for his professionalism and dedication to finding the perfect candidate. This has resulted in us recruiting top notch staff members who have proved to be the "perfect fit" for our office. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Travail to anyone searching for new staff.

One Word....Excellent

Have been using Travail for many years to recruit for our business and have always found they offer, excellent communication, a very professional service and always ensure that candidates meet the requirements unlike other recruitment services we have used in the past. They are always my "Go-To" whenever we have a vacancy and look forward to working with them over the coming years.

Long term customer

I have been using Travail Employment for approximately 35 years, and I have always found the company to be very accomplished in matching the right candidate to the role we are advertising. Travail has taken the time to get to know and understand our business requirements, and they only offer candidates that have the skills to match our role. All staff at Travail are professional and very easy to work with - that's why I've remained a customer for so long throughout my working career. Thank you for taking the pain out of recruitment.
