Temping with Hays - the benefits

As well as the career choice for many professionals, temporary or contract work can also be an ideal solution for those between jobs, travelling or looking to return to work after a career break. Consider the advantages:

Competitive rates of pay

The market for temporary and interim professionals is competitive meaning that experienced individuals with initiative are in high demand. As a result flexible individuals available to start immediately should not be short of temporary opportunities.

Your Hays consultant will work to secure the best possible rate of pay for your assignment and advise on the potential to work overtime hours for each role we find you.

Expand your skills

Temporary work in different environments and different industry sectors is the single most effective way of broadening your skills base and enhancing your CV. Inevitably this will mean that more opportunities are available to you in the longer term.

Access to the UK’s top employers

As the largest and most successful specialist recruitment consultancy in the UK, Hays has links with more top employers than anyone else. As a result we are exclusive suppliers of temporary staff to a wealth of high profile organisations across the country and can offer you an unrivalled choice of assignments.

Permanent employment

If you are looking for a permanent role then keeping your skills sharp in a temporary role (even if not directly relevant to the type of permanent position you want) will make you more attractive to prospective employers.

Experience shows that individuals in temporary roles have a significantly higher chance of being asked to attend interview than those biding their time outside of the working environment.
