Managing Growth With A Global Player

Who – Global Manufacturer

Whilst Appointments are dedicated to supporting clients and candidates throughout Staffordshire and Cheshire, we are still able to effectively manage relationships with global organisations too. This case study explains how we supported a large manufacturer.


What – Specialist roles that were proving hard to fill

This global manufacturer, with a base of operations in Staffs, was working with a number of local recruitment agencies but was still unable to meet their demand. None were able to keep pace with the high level of growth they were experiencing, particularly with hard-to-fill, specialised roles. So they asked Appointments Personnel if they could help meet the demand.


How – Using local knowledge of the recruitment market

Appointments were able to start filling these specialised roles and built trust with the client, thanks to our years of recruitment knowledge and experience of the local employment landscape.


Recruitments are more than a recruitment partner. By becoming an extension of the clients existing HR team and fully integrated our team into theirs we were able to understand the business fully and what they were looking for. Recruiting for a range of roles, from shop-floor team members to the successful placement of a new Operations Director, Appointments have supported the client to grow in all areas of their business. Furthermore, Appointments were able to help the client with the implementation of bespoke behavioural interview techniques to ensure we always matched the best person to the role.


Outcome – Exclusive partnership

Due to the strategic and collaborative approach the Appointments team take, we have become the exclusive partner of this international manufacturer, supporting with the recruitment strategy of roles across the globe. One aspect of this collaboration we are most proud of was the dedication of our consultants throughout the pandemic that meant our client could continue to grow at a fantastic rate.


By working exclusively with Appointments, this client is guaranteed to have their choice of exceptional, top talent especially in a candidate driven market.
