Strong demand leads to expansion of G&P’s recruitment services

G&P has expanded its recruitment services division

As a result of unprecedented demand for its global recruitment services, G&P, an international quality management services provider, has expanded its recruitment services division.

Working with manufacturing organisations around the world to ensure their products meet appropriate quality standards, G&P’s recruitment team identify, screen and place suitably qualified personnel into open roles within manufacturers. The permanent, temporary and contract roles cover a wide range of quality associated positions such as production operatives, vehicle technicians, quality engineers, supplier quality engineers and auditors.

Simon Francis, G&P group quality director, said: “Quality remains the primary focus for most manufacturers, but over the last few years they have had to adapt and introduce a more flexible workforce, which brings with it a host of new and significant challenges. However, our specialist recruitment services help these companies flex up, quickly and cost-effectively with the right people for the job. As our service removes many of the headaches associated with traditional in-house recruitment, it is not surprising that we are having to scale up our own operation accordingly.”

With its robust screening and selection processes, G&P can recruit quality management staff for most manufacturing industries. In the last 12 months G&P’s recruitment team have helped manufacturers fill more than 600 permanent, temporary and contract vacancies across 60 sites.

Mr Francis continued: “Many of our customers have found that it is much more of an employee’s market, rather than employer’s one in recent times, and have therefore struggled to attract and retain good candidates. With this shift, we have seen a subtle but definite increase in the demand for permanent placements which gives customers direct access to our global pool of qualified and experienced talent for every level of their organisation. What is more, our screening services ensure these candidates have the right experience, attitude and commitment which are critical to staff retention and continuity of service.”
