Connect Appointments‘ consultants know recruitment inside out. With roots dating back to the 1960s, we at Connect pride ourselves on being one of the best independent recruitment agencies in Scotland and across the UK.

Here at Connect our teams specialise in a range of sectors, placing thousands of candidates into temporary, permanent or contract work every week. Whether you have experience in a certain area or you’re keen for a change, our consultants can help you make the move – take a look at our sectors for inspiration.

Manufacturing

The manufacturing division at Connect is one of the most interesting, because it covers so many different areas of work – and the clients were working with are constantly growing, meaning big potential for regular shifts or even permanent work. We recruit for manufacturing talent in component assembly, electronics, food production, packaging, plastics, textiles, metal fabrication and more.

Packaging

We work with some major packaging companies across the UK, and we’re always looking for production operators, technical operators and shift managers, as well as printers and designers.

Executive and Management

We recruit for professionals in HR, marketing and accountancy, for a range of smaller and larger firms. We often headhunt for these roles, but if you have the skills and a career change, contact your nearest Connect branch now.

Contact Centre

Call and contact centres are at the heart of many businesses, whether they are handling customer enquiries, complaints or offering advice. We recruit for service specialists, sales advisors, team leaders, operation managers, team coaches and more.

Drinks Industry

Scotland’s drink industry is on the up – and we’ve placed a huge number of workers in distilleries and bottling halls across Scotland, as general operators, machine operators, engineers, quality controllers, forklift truck drivers and in spirit prep and processing. This is a great line of work to get into, offering the opportunity to develop and use transferable skills.

Electronics

Working in electronics for over 30 years, our consultants have extensive knowledge of the standards set by the military, medical, space, telecoms and marine sectors, as well as other electrical product manufacturers. We recruit for a range of roles, including test development engineers, software developers, project managers and maintenance engineers.

Engineering and Technical

We’ve got close links to businesses in manufacturing, oil and gas, and power and energy, so engineers are a core part of our business. From mechanical to gas turbine engineers, test to CNC engineers, if you’ve got the skills, we could have a job for you.

Driving and Transport

Connect Appointments’ sister company, Connect Driver Solutions, launched in 2015 to help workers get into the exciting, ever moving world of transport jobs. From HGV drivers to multi-drop van drivers, we’ve got something for everyone – and our consultants have worked in the industry themselves, so they know what both our clients and candidates want and need.

Logistics and Distribution

The production line is vital to many businesses and our clients need reliable staff. Transport administrators, supply chain managers and warehouse order pickers are just some of the logistics and distribution roles we recruit for.

Office and Commercial

Office and commercial staff are essential for any business, making sure the company runs smoothly – and it can cover a wide range of different industries. We are experienced in finding talented receptionists, administration assistants, personal assistants and data entry clerks, for our clients across a range of sectors.

Sales

From recruitment to advertising sales, we have close working relationships with employers across the UK, offering great opportunities for those with sales know-how. If you are a people person who loves a challenge, sales are a great line of work to get into.
