JUST-O Recruitment is a Sunderland-based recruitment partner working with employers across the North East and the wider UK. We focus on permanent placements, careful shortlisting, and consultants who actually pick up the phone.
From shop floor to back office, we place capable, vetted people who fit your team and stay long term. If your sector is not listed, ask, the chances are we have placed there before.

We exist to take that load. We brief properly, shortlist responsibly, and stand behind the people we send.
You will not be passed around a desk. The consultant who takes your brief is the one who shortlists, briefs candidates, and follows up post-offer.
Most live briefs receive their first qualified shortlist within a week. Urgent roles flagged on day one are prioritised across the desk.
Every permanent placement carries a free replacement period. If a hire doesn't stick within the agreed window, we re-run the search at no charge.
Sunderland HQ, with active networks across Newcastle, Gateshead, Durham, Teesside and the wider North East. We know who's hiring and who's moving.
Right-to-work, references, qualifications, motivation, salary expectations, all checked before a CV reaches your desk. No noise.
We do not place interim, contractor or temp staff. Every hire is a long-term commitment from us, you, and the candidate.
No drawn-out kick-offs, no dropped balls. The brief becomes the shortlist becomes the offer, in that order.
A 30-45 minute briefing call. We capture the role, the team, the must-haves, the deal-breakers, the salary band and the timeline. You get a written brief back to confirm.
We approach our network and active candidates, vet, interview and rank. You receive a tight, qualified shortlist with our notes, salary expectations and availability.
We handle counter-offer pressure, notice-period coordination and start-date logistics, then check in on day 7, day 30 and day 90 to make sure the hire is working.
We hire most often across these areas, although remote-friendly and nationwide briefs are equally welcome.
