Overview

We are a Certified B Corporation ™

Balancing Purpose and Profit.


In 2019, ADLIB joined a growing global community of B Corps. From the outset, this was our starting point to evolve, a framework that would sharpen our focus and hold us accountable to building a business that truly balanced profit and purpose.

Our starting point was a score of 82.8. In 2020 ADLIB became the world’s first 100% employee-owned B Corp recruitment business globally.

In 2023 we received a recertification score of 130.3. The highest ranking recruitment company, globally. An immensely proud moment in ADLIB history.

I’ve been working with AdLib over the past 10ish years in between jobs. Theo & Ania in particular have been great, always letting me know about relevant roles and just generally being lovely people. Would defo recommend!

Sabrina and the ADLIB team were a pleasure to work with throughout the process — professional, friendly, and genuinely supportive at every stage. Communication was clear and timely, and I always felt well-informed and looked after. Thanks again for all your help in securing my role at Bespoke.

Emily was great. She worked with me to understand what I was looking for and find a role that matched the criteria. She took the time to regularly check in with me along the recruitment journey and find the answers to any questions I had. Overall it was a great and friendly experience and I would recommend Adlib to anyone looking for their next role

Significant Issues

I have never found this recruitment agency easy to get in touch with - usually they take my number and say they will phone back, yet never seem to - they need to put in place some kind of system whereby they respond to all enquirers, be they candidates or clients, within 48 hours (or similar). It isn't impressive.

Having spent a long time trying to find the right role fit over the last year I had dealt with a lot of recruitment agencies and my overall experience with them was resoundingly negative. After Chris N contacted me about a role that seemed like an almost-perfect fit we had a good chat and I made my needs clear in terms of salary and working structure, which was slightly different to the original job posting. Chris did an excellent job of negotiating between myself and the business and was able to broker a compromise that both myself and the employer were happy with. Having been in the role for a few months I discovered from my boss that 2 of the recruiters I had spoken to previously were also in regard to the same role, but because my expectations had differed slightly from the employer's checklist, those recruiters had immediately dropped me as a candidate. If it weren't for Chris' willingness to challenge candidate AND employer side to find the right balance for both, I doubt I would be in the role I love so much now. As a result, I would recommend Adlib in a heartbeat and frankly, they are alone in the category of recruitment agencies I WOULD recommend. Super grateful to Chris and the team for seeking me out, recognising the value of my work & experience and going beyond what I had become accustomed to in order to get a good deal for both sides.

ADLIB and specifically Ania are great. Ania kept me informed at every step of the recruitment process and communicated my requirements well to the hiring manager, ensuring my needs were met. She also stayed in touch to check my onboarding went smoothly, definitely recommend if you’re looking for a recruiter!

Great recruiting opportunity was presented to me by Dave, who went above and beyond during the whole process, keeping me informed of what was going on, what tips and tricks I could use in the interviews, and told me exactly what I needed to know when I needed it. Can’t praise him enough. Lovely to have been able to experience this with Ad-lib, Kind regards, Sean
