What is APSco?

APSCo (The Association of Professional Staffing Companies) is the only membership body dedicated to representing excellence in the professional recruitment industry.

Since its founding in 1999 it has grown rapidly to become the authoritative, trusted and innovative voice for the professional recruitment sector.

The APSCo badge is recognised by candidates and employers as the differentiating quality mark in professional talent acquisition.

Why is this important?

In providing our range of recruitment services to clients, our membership of The Association of Professional Staffing Companies (APSCo) provides you with a trusted badge of service quality and value.  To be accepted as APSCo members, our company was required to undergo over twenty quality reference checks across our operations with both clients and candidates and required us to commit to a strict code of professional recruitment conduct.

As an APSCo member, we are also required to complete a regular member compliance assessment which enables us to demonstrate that not only do we understand our legal and regulatory obligations, but also that we are working to best practice recruitment standards.

Being accepted as an APSCo member means that our clients can be assured that they are partnering with a professional recruitment firm that has a true understanding of their market sector, is committed to best practice compliance and quality standards, and is supported by an international trade body with best in class legal, compliance, training and market intelligence resources.

Our clients can also reap the benefit of our APSCo membership through specific client events and advice focussed on issues such as IR35 legislation; managing risk through the recruitment supply chain and becoming a disability confident employer.
