OUR STORY
Honesty and integrity is at the heart of everything we do
We started in 1997 with a vision - that honesty and integrity should be at the heart of everything we do, it is still a non-negotiable.
It was 1997 when Harris Lord was established. (This was also the last year that the UK won the Eurovision Song Contest and the first Harry Potter book was published).
The idea was simple, don't just recruit people and find jobs - find the right individuals the right role in a business where you can contribute to each others growth.
Our consultative, service-led approach sets us apart from our rivals and Harris Lord has continued to grow into what it is today, an international business with a local feel. Harris Lord has teams spanning three core specialist markets, Life Sciences, Manufacturing and Office.
No matter how many people join us on this journey, the vision remains steadfast, to ensure we can always connect the right people with the right opportunities.

"We were inundated within our first year. I remember sitting on the floor every weekend, surrounded by CV's of people who had entrusted us with their job search and carefully matching them to the best roles"
