Temp Zone
Welcome to our Temp Zone where you will find all the resources you need. Whether you're already temping with us or considering temporary work for the first time, this section has everything you need for your temporary assignments. We also have information for employers.
The benefits of temping
Temporary work can be incredibly rewarding and has many advantages: Temping offers variety, flexibility and an opportunity to learn new skills; it also provides invaluable experiences in different types of businesses, a chance to meet new people, expand your professional network and gain an insight into a wide range of careers.
For some people, temping is a career or a lifestyle choice. For others, it is a temporary solution to help fund their studies, bolster their savings, get a new business off the ground or pave the way to permanent employment.
Temping can be a great door opener, giving you the opportunity to make your mark and potentially land your dream job. A large proportion of our temps go on to be offered permanent positions!

Looking for temporary workers?
Our temps are a huge asset to the businesses and organisations they work for. If you’re under-resourced and looking for an immediate solution, we can help.
All our temps are pre-interviewed and assessed before they join us which means we can quickly and effectively identify people with the skills, know-how and personality traits you’re looking for within Administration, HR, Marketing and Finance.
Whether you want to plug gaps created by sickness, parental leave, a sudden exit or hard-to-fill vacancies – or need extra help with new projects or increased workload – we have a great team of hard working temporary candidates to introduce you to. In fact many of our clients are so impressed with our temps that they go on to offer them permanent roles!
If you’re looking for temporary support, please get in touch with our team at temporary@allen-associates.co.uk or call us on 01865 335600.
