About us

Get to know who we are

We founded The Bee Team with one simple goal: to build lasting relationships between businesses and the people who power them. We believe recruitment should do more than fill a role, it should help companies thrive and individuals grow.

Our passion lies in improving retention, not just for the benefit of employers and employees, but for the people who ultimately rely on their services. When the right people are in the right roles, everybody wins.

Our mission

We’re on a mission to help local businesses thrive by finding the right people for the right roles and helping great individuals discover opportunities where they can truly shine.

Like a well-run hive, every business needs the right team to grow and flourish. We believe that when the right connections are made, everyone buzzes, from employers and employees to the wider community they serve.

Our vision

We believe a better future begins with the right people in the right roles.

People are at the heart of everything we do; they're the foundation of thriving teams, stronger communities, and lasting legacies. That’s why we take the time to truly understand our clients and candidates from the very first conversation.

Because when you build your hive with care, it lasts.

We’re a small, family-run business with a big passion for making a difference. With over 15 years of experience in recruitment, our founder Kim has seen the industry evolve and the challenges that come with it. That’s why we set out to do things differently.
