Specialist Services in Manufacturing Recruitment
Fueling the Economy and Our Lives
Orion Group has been supplying key personnel in quality, management, production, and engineering skills within manufacturing to various key sectors like pharmaceuticals, filtration, energy, chemicals and renewables to ensure production remains undisrupted. As manufacturing continues to play an important role in the economy, it is becoming more and more hi-tech, resulting in high demand for the recruitment of trained professionals to oversee areas in process integration, and automation, as well as traditional roles found in manufacturing like Quality Control, Quality Assurance, and Process Engineers.
We understand that manufacturing, like many industries, is facing a workforce shortage, with a real need for skilled operatives to implement and operate new technology to improve manufacturing output. That’s why Orion Group is here. As one of the foremost Manufacturing Recruitment agencies, specialising in Filtration and Nonwovens, we have a wealth of talented manufacturing recruiters with access to the manpower you need: not just the people trained to operate within the production system, but also those involved across the whole process, from purchasing and sales managers, to design and maintenance engineers.
Whatever you need, we have you covered.
