Ever wondered about the benefits of working with a recruitment agency in the UK electronics sector? 🤔 After 25 years as a recruiter focused on technical and engineering roles, and having been a contractor in electronics myself, I can confidently say that partnering with a recruitment agency can be a game-changer. Firstly, recruitment agencies have extensive networks and industry-specific knowledge, which means they can quickly connect you with top talent that fits your exact needs. This can save you significant time and resources compared to traditional hiring methods. Additionally, agencies often have access to passive candidates who aren't actively job hunting but could be the perfect fit for your role. This hidden talent pool is often overlooked but can be crucial for finding the best candidates in a competitive market. #Recruitment #Electronics #UKHiring

*****10 REASONS TO CONSTANTLY RECRUIT CANDIDATES******* When I first started in recruitment in 2015, it was drilled into me, always recruit and build a pool of candidates, even when you have no jobs available to offer. At first, this instruction seemed like madness, and I would say to my Operations Manager, Why waste time recruiting, when I don't have any jobs to offer, these are his and all other managers positive reasons to do so: 1) You never know when a client is going to land on your desk 2) Always be proactive with your recruitment and have an active database 3) How can you prospect to a client when your candidate cupboard is empty 4) Always build a network of candidates for the area you supply 5) Connections and networking via candidates is all about relationships 6) Protect your own position and salary 7) Creating time to recruit now, will prevent panic hiring 8) Compliance process maybe time consuming 9) A reactive recruitment desk must have a stream of new applications 10) If your not recruiting your local candidates...your competitors are!!!!! Happy Monday everyone and don't forget your Monday morning client check in calls, tis is the season for networking!

Made Smarter Adoption North West, the trailblazing digital technology adoption programme, has secured an additional £230,000 to help more SME manufacturers access transformational technology. The allocation from the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) will fund at least 10 new companies to adopt technologies such as sensors, robotics and 3D printers to increase productivity, growth, create new high value jobs and support decarbonisation. This cash boost is more good news for the business support initiative that will continue from April 2025 as part of the Government’s £16M commitment to expand into all English regions. Made Smarter UK offers SME manufacturing and engineering companies access to technology advice, leadership and skills training, as well as grant funding for digital internships and technology projects. Alain D., Programme Manager, said: “I am delighted that DBT have allocated a further £230k of in-year funding to Made Smarter Adoption North West. The majority will go towards supporting our strong pipeline of companies to adopt new digital tools to accelerate their digital transformation. “The opportunity to be able to support more manufacturing and engineering SMEs is something we relish, and we urge those companies who have yet to make contact with us to do so.”

Automation is the future! 🚀 In my short time as a Recruitment Consultant at Matchtech, specialising in Controls & Automation, I've seen firsthand how advanced automation systems can transform manufacturing and engineering sectors. Companies investing in these technologies are not just keeping up with the times; they're setting themselves up for long-term success. Advanced automation systems bring a host of benefits to the table: ✅ Increased Efficiency: Automated systems can operate 24/7 without breaks, significantly boosting productivity. ✅ Cost Savings: While the initial investment might be high, the reduction in labour costs and increased output can lead to substantial savings over time. ✅ Improved Quality: Automation reduces human error, ensuring consistent and high-quality products. A recent study by the UK Manufacturing Review found that companies implementing advanced automation saw a 30% increase in production efficiency (UK Manufacturing Review, 2023). This is a game-changer for businesses looking to stay competitive in a fast-paced market. I'd love to hear your thoughts! How has automation impacted your business?
