Nice To Meet You.
About Us
Forget what you know about temp agencies. Chimera Recruitment creates a better experience for stores, temporary sales staff, and for customers. We work with some of the best department stores and brands in the world to provide exceptional, charismatic agency staff who make a difference to each customer they interact with on the shop-floor.
Our Story
Daniel, Reeda and Ryan started Chimera Recruitment to create a better experience for stores, temporary sales staff, and for customers through high-level training, fair pay, and incentivising hard work. Having met working as temporary sales staff on the shop-floor in Harrods, and worked their way up through the perfume and cosmetics luxury retail industry, the three Chimera co-founders have empathy and experience working and managing employees on the shop-floor.
“Each person selected to represent the unparalleled companies we work with, should create a meaningful connection with each customer. This connection aims to reflect and humanise a brand reputation that has been built up over decades.”
