Sectors We Recruit in Manchester

Manufacturing Recruitment, Manchester

Greater Manchester and the North West hold one of the UK's densest manufacturing bases: food and drink, textiles and technical fabrics, chemicals and plastics, and a long engineering tradition across the wider region. Production, planning and quality roles move quickly here because candidates can change employer without changing commute.

Civil Engineering Recruitment, Manchester

The North West combines a dense city-centre structures market with the region’s water investment programme, and the two compete for different people. City-centre work wants RC frame and basement experience with the temporary works literacy that goes with it; the water programme wants clean and wastewater process and drainage engineers who are comfortable working to the undertaker’s own standards.
