Six months ago, we partnered with a food and beverage manufacturer based in North Carolina. Due to rapid market growth and rising product demand, they needed help expanding their workforce with precision on a tight timeline. Here’s what they told us: 📌 We need to expand our engineering department by 30%. 📌 We need 1 Maintenance Manager, 1 Maintenance Manager, 3 senior engineers and 7 technicians. 📌 We can’t settle for candidates who aren’t technically qualified or a true cultural fit. 📌 We have 3-6 months before this goes beyond mission-critical. The challenge was clear: scale rapidly while finding top-tier, specialized talent. We know from experience that balancing volume with precision is no small feat. Enter our recruitment team, led by Michael. Here’s how we tackled it: ✏️ We crafted a tailored recruitment plan, knowing these matters require a calculated and precise approach. ✏️ We scheduled a myriad of interviews, ensuring candidates met both technical and cultural criteria along with industry knowledge. ✏️ Despite the difficulty, we secured senior-level talent before finalizing the technician team. In less than four months, we successfully expanded their engineering department, playing a pivotal role in the growth of the company. We are now their preferred recruiting firm, fulfilling their staffing needs nationwide. Here are some significant stats from the project: ☑️ We submitted the winning candidate for a Manufacturing Engineer within four days. ☑️ We placed a Controls Engineer within two months. ☑️ We filled the Maintenance Manager role in less than three weeks. ☑️ For Maintenance Techs, we’ve submitted 28 candidates, with 18 interviews and 8 offers since mid-December. Our work impacts the trajectories of businesses and the careers of those behind them. That’s why we’re always committed to placing the right people in the right seats, ensuring future success for all. #hiring #recruiting #jobplacement #careeropportunities #humanresources #staffingfirm #crossresourcegroup

The reality of the job market right now for engineers 👇 If they’re a good-looking engineer on paper, they’ll be receiving 60-70 calls once their CV is uploaded. It’s flattering, but it’s also not a great place to be. And no doubt it’ll get annoying very quick. Any engineers facing a similar problem to this – if you can, just stick to one good recruiter. Someone who specialises in the type of role you’re looking for. And knows the area like the back of their hand. I purely focus on recruiting Maintenance Engineers in and around Warwickshire. If you’re wanting to find a job where you feel appreciated for what you do, drop me a message. #Hiring #Recruiting #MaintenanceEngineer

As a seasoned recruiter in the manufacturing industry, I understand the pivotal role that maintenance engineers play in ensuring the smooth operation of production facilities. These highly skilled professionals are responsible for the upkeep and repair of machinery and equipment, essential for maintaining optimal productivity. Their expertise in troubleshooting and problem-solving is crucial in preventing costly downtime and ensuring the safety of the workforce. ⚙️🔧 In today's fast-paced and competitive manufacturing landscape, the demand for talented maintenance engineers has never been higher. Companies are seeking individuals with a strong technical background, excellent attention to detail, and a proactive approach to maintenance. The ability to work under pressure and effectively communicate with other team members is also highly valued. A career in maintenance engineering offers not only stability and growth opportunities but also the satisfaction of knowing that one's contribution directly impacts the success of the entire operation. 🏭💼 I encourage both experienced maintenance engineers and those aspiring to enter the field to continue honing their skills and staying updated on the latest advancements in technology and best practices. By investing in continuous learning and development, individuals can position themselves as valuable assets to manufacturing companies, paving the way for a rewarding and fulfilling career. #MaintenanceEngineering #ManufacturingSuccess #SkilledProfessionals
