The Expedient Way

We exist to change the perception of using a recruitment agency. We want to make a difference to both clients and candidates and leave them thinking "I never knew recruitment could be so easy!"


Andrea Richards and Darren Standbridge have collectively been part of the industrial recruitment business in the West Midlands for 35 years.



After working for different agencies for many years they decided to unite their wealth of experience with their passion to provide an honest, reliable and quality local service and create Expedient Recruitment Limited in 2008.



Over the years, Expedient Recruitment Ltd have worked tirelessly with both our clients and candidates to ensure our service is tailor made to our individual clients needs. We have supplied many high-profile companies, and we are recognised in the industry for our service. Our company is growing at a rapid pace, but our core values remain the same – to make a difference, communicate openly and honestly, and provide quality recruitment solutions The Expedient Way.

Expedient Recruitment Ltd is a member of ARC the Association for Recruitment Consultants, endeavouring to uphold the values and standards of the Recruitment Industry. We are focussed on delivering a quality service of the highest standard to our affiliates. We value the opinions of both clients and candidates and are always seeking feedback on ways to improve the service we provide.

Expedient Recruitment Core Values

Above all we treat people how we would wish to be treated ourselves; each employee, each client and every temporary member of staff.

Making a Difference

Together we respect the person, not for the good of Expedient but for the good of the individual.

We are Open & Honest in our Communication

We share information to all of our Expedient family and manage any situation with honesty, integrity and respect.

Strength from Diversity

We believe that working with people of different backgrounds, cultures and ideas helps us all grow individually and as an organisation.

We Promote Togetherness & Happiness

We are not afraid to laugh and have fun. We promote togetherness through a fun atmosphere and encourage all employees to be themselves. "It’s nice to be nice."

The Expedient Foundation Launch is now expected to launch in July 2020.
