January 2015 sees the expansion of Expion’s automotive and engineering division, with the addition of a dedicated team of automotive industry recruiters to focus on all vehicle maintenance disciplines.
This expansion means that Expion now offers a 360 service for this sector, recruiting right through from point of manufacture to aftermarket and maintenance.
The new team has solid experience of sourcing candidates in the following:
- Fleet hire and maintenance
- Logistics and distribution
- Public sector
- Vehicle retail
- Bus and coach
- Defence
- Plant equipment
- OEM, tier 1 and tier 2 manufacturing
The automotive and engineering division at Expion is already well established throughout the UK. It is headed up by Francesca Loughrey, a recruitment professional with 11 years’ recruiting experience across a number of disciplines, who previously built a successful national automotive business for the specialist arm of a global recruitment business.
She says: “While our automotive and engineering division has already fulfilled the staffing requirements of a wide range of companies across the UK, the time was right to bring together a dedicated team to build on this success by offering truly expert knowledge of the vehicle maintenance industry.
“The new team’s extensive experience will allow them to source niche candidates for clients within this highly competitive market and also offer a range of flexible resourcing solutions too.”
