Allen Associates

At Allen Associates, we are a team of passionate individuals who are dedicated to connecting people with businesses that share their values. Established in Oxford in 1998 by Kate and Rob Allen, our agency has grown into a leading recruitment business in the South East of England. Our mission is to provide a unique recruitment experience that goes beyond just matching candidates with job openings. We take the time to get to know our candidates and clients, understanding their needs and goals, and work tirelessly to deliver exceptional results.

Our Services

Our specialisms lie in the fields of PA and Administration, HR, Marketing, and Finance. We specialise in both permanent and temporary roles at all levels, from entry-level positions to director-level appointments. Our expertise extends to temporary and contract placements, allowing businesses to adapt to changing circumstances and take advantage of short-term opportunities.

It's about understanding the needs of both candidates and clients, and crafting a solution that aligns perfectly with their goals. We take the time to build relationships, providing expert guidance and support every step of the way. Our knowledge and expertise ensure that both candidates and clients achieve their objectives, whether that's finding a fulfilling new role or securing the right talent for their business.

At the heart of Allen Associates is a deep commitment to people and a passion for what we do. We believe that everyone deserves a good reason to get up in the morning, and our purpose is to help people find fulfilling jobs and develop their careers. We also strive to enrich organisations by recruiting the best people for their roles. Our values drive everything we do and inform the way we work.
