WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY
"I would like to give testimony to how well ATA Recruitment performed in helping us to recruit for various roles over the last few months. The SHE Coordinator that we have set on which you put forward is proving to be as good as we hoped, and our Engineering Manager is very pleased with the potential of the maintenance recruitments he has made through ATA Recruitment."
Plant Manager, Forterra
"In September 2021, we needed to recruit some senior-level positions for the group including Head of Operations, and given the climate at the time with candidates, we knew this would be very challenging. We approached ATA Search to help assist us with the recruitment through a retained search assignment.
ATA Search were exceptionally thorough when taking the brief and asked a lot of questions to get a very detailed understanding of the position and the company.
They were professional in their approach and their willingness to work with the Epwin Group was fantastic. We were fully briefed on all candidates and received very detailed information on candidate profiles and CVs as well as an end-to-end managed process.
ATA Search succeeded in placing two candidates into the senior roles and as such, have also gone on to recruit two Managing Directors, two Sales Directors, Operations Director, General Manager, multiple Operation Leaders, Head of Purchasing and many more for all of our Group Companies. All these positions are key strategic positions that are paving the way for the Group to achieve its growth targets. The Thomas International Psychometric tools offered are also very valuable as they give us a greater insight into the person we are hiring."
