About Us

About Us.
Shaping careers and lives
At BG Recruitment, we pride ourselves on being a friendly, professional, and experienced recruitment agency based in Bathgate, serving the wider Scotland and Borders areas. As a proudly independent agency, we combine the personal touch of a small business with the high standards and results you’d expect from a larger firm.
Although we are a new name in the market, our roots run deep. BG Recruitment began with a simple idea and a strong passion for connecting great people with great businesses.
Our founder brings over 6 and a half years of direct recruitment experience, paired with more than a decade in customer service and relationship management. This unique blend allows us to offer a smooth, responsive, and tailored recruitment process for both clients and candidates. We understand the local job market, the needs of growing businesses, and what it takes to match the right people with the right roles.
At the heart of our business is reputation. We rely on word of mouth, repeat clients, and personal referrals, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. Our approach is simple: provide outstanding service, act with integrity, and deliver results.
Whether you're a company looking to grow your team or a jobseeker ready for your next opportunity, BG Recruitment is here to help make the process fast, efficient, and stress-free.
Let’s connect. Let’s grow. Let’s work together.
Our Strategy.
Transforming lives through pushing recruiting boundaries
At BG Recruitment, we’re proud to do things differently. We’re not here to follow the standard recruitment formula, we’re here to raise the bar. Our mission is simple but powerful: transforming lives through pushing recruiting boundaries. That means challenging outdated methods, taking a fresh and personal approach, and focusing on people, not just placements.
What sets us apart is our commitment to building meaningful, long-lasting connections between employers and jobseekers. We look beyond the CV to understand the person, their goals, and their potential. For businesses, we don’t just match skillsets, we match values, culture, and ambition. Every placement is approached with care, precision, and a deep understanding of the local market.
We don’t rely on volume or quick wins. Instead, we focus on quality, consistency, and relationships built on trust. As an independent agency, we’re agile and hands-on, giving each client and candidate the attention they deserve. By pushing the boundaries of traditional recruitment, we help people take the next step in their careers with confidence, and help businesses grow stronger, one great hire at a time.
At BG Recruitment, we’re more than recruiters, we’re career partners, business supporters, and proud contributors to the communities we serve.
