Bradley Haworth
Senior Recruitment Consultant – Engineering (Water Sector)
Over the last 12-months I’ve worked exclusively with the UK’s best water engineers, placing them into frameworks and tier provider schemes across the country. Tapping into my networks, I am ready to independently support new clients with their AMP 8 recruitment needs.
What additional value do I provide?
- My network includes active and passive water engineers i.e. those not on job boards or so in demand that they don’t “look” for work.
- I understand the unique complexities of each scheme and the regulation in which our engineers operate within, this means I go beyond the job spec to find the right engineer that can genuinely deliver
- The engineers I work with have proven experience and deliver both on time and in budget
