A more flexible working life

Welcome to Meridian's TempZone

Temping, or temporary work, is a non-fixed term working basis and can last for any length of time; from a single day's work to months in duration.

Employers recruit temporary workers for a number of reasons, from boosting productivity at busy times, to covering staff absence or leave, such as maternity leave, to supporting particular projects and filling gaps in expertise. Regardless of the reason, temping offers you a huge amount of flexibility as well as provides a great way for you to learn new skills, experience new industries and meet new people.

Meridian's TempZone is designed to help you understand more about temping and offer insight so you can make an informed decision as to whether temping is right for you.
