Recruitment Agency in Dorking

— Dorking Employer FAQ

Hiring in Dorking, explained

• Do you recruit for employers based in Dorking?
  Yes. Dorking sits within our core Surrey coverage area — 25 minutes east of our Guildford office via the A25 — and our consultants regularly visit employers across RH4, RH5 for on-site consultations. We recruit permanent, contract and temporary staff, and can sponsor overseas candidates when a role cannot be filled locally.
• Which roles do you fill most often in Dorking?
  Our highest-volume Dorking sectors are healthcare & care homes, hospitality & tourism, construction & trades and related support functions. Dorking's economy centres on independent retail and hospitality, professional practices, and a visitor economy drawn to the Surrey Hills. Care homes across Westcott, Brockham and North Holmwood hire continuously, and rural construction and estate work sustains skilled-trade demand.
• How quickly can you shortlist candidates for a Dorking vacancy?
  For local Dorking roles we deliver a screened shortlist within 48 hours of agreeing the brief, with most permanent placements completed in two to four weeks. Internationally sponsored hires take 8–16 weeks to allow for the Certificate of Sponsorship and visa processing.
• Can you sponsor overseas workers for a Dorking business?
  Yes. We guide Mole Valley District employers through the Home Office Skilled Worker sponsor licence application, issue Certificates of Sponsorship, and manage Skilled Worker and Health and Care Worker visa processing end to end — including right-to-work checks and relocation support for the candidate.
• What does it cost to hire through your Dorking service?
  Fees are contingency-based: you pay only when a candidate you hire starts work. The fee is an agreed percentage of the starting salary, confirmed in writing before we begin, with no registration or advertising charges. Volume campaigns and retained searches in Dorking are quoted individually.
• Do you have an office near Dorking?
  Our Surrey headquarters is at 54 Shepherds Hill, Guildford, GU2 9RZ — 25 minutes east of our Guildford office via the A25. Dorking employers can meet us there or ask a consultant to visit their site. Call +44 7426 924354 or email info@gobblex.co.uk to arrange a free consultation.
