Trusted by Job Seekers and Employers across Cambridgeshire
Point has been a trusted part of the Cambridgeshire business community since 1989, and what started as a single-minded commitment to doing recruitment properly has grown into one of the region’s longest-standing independent agencies. From our base in Huntingdon, we have spent nearly four decades getting to know the businesses we work with and the people we place. That local knowledge runs deep, and it is not something you can replicate overnight. It is earned, year by year, placement by placement.
We are proudly independent, which means every decision we make is guided by what is right for our clients and candidates, not by targets set in a boardroom elsewhere. Our consultants bring decades of specialist experience across Industrial, Commercial, and Engineering recruitment, and many of the relationships they have built span years, in some cases far longer. We still meet every candidate we place, we still take the time to understand your business before we start the search, and we still believe that the right hire, made for the right reasons, makes all the difference.
