It was a pleasure working with Peter, as he assisted in a high volume recruitment drive which was very successful due to his dedication and knowledge of the industry. I highly recommend Peter.

Peter has incredible attention to detail ensuring every aspect of a job/project is considered and thus enabling him to find the right person for the job. He is committed to his clients and colleagues, and is prepared to go the extra mile to find the correct person for the client and their particular requirements. Peter has developed many in house tests to ensure when a Trades-person is supplied they have the necessary skills to begin work immediately.

Experience

    • Managing Director
      • Jun 2003 - Present

      Specialist Engineering and Trades recruiter with a passion for people and engineering. We sculpt recruitment processes for our clients. Using Engineering Peoples proficiency based recruitment methodology we get a look into the future of our candidate and their skills, knowledge ,experience and EQ skills. How do we achieve this? We use a hands on skills assessment conducted in our specialist workshops. Yes two workshops and four interview rooms that look like workshops. The premise is that, If you say you can do something, then, we will get you to show us during the interview. This is pretty much foolproof method of finding the right candidate. If you can't show us your skills in the interview, then you will not be the right fit for the role. From Cad design, Mig Welding, electronics assembly, schematic diagrams, engineering drawings, problem solving and just plain putting equipment together. Resumes tell only the candidates side of the story. Get the full picture with Engineering People. Show less

      very different recruitment. Engineering & technical like no other. If F=MA then you realise we are different. Ohms law, engineering drawings, critical path in project engineering means anything to you - then we can help recruit people who know what they are talking about.
