Tyneside firm becomes one of North East's biggest engineering recruiters

A Newcastle-based company is now one of the largest recruiters in the engineering and technology sectors in the North East, after adding another member to its team.

Northumbria University Graduate Joel Brown has joined Jackson Hogg Recruitment, which provides recruitment and resource consultancy services for professional, through to senior and board level appointments for engineering and related sectors.

Joel, who lives in Newcastle and originally comes from Northallerton has worked in recruitment since he graduated last year, specialising in helping companies find electronic and electrical engineers.

Joel’s appointment means that Jackson Hogg Recruitment, which works exclusively with engineering, technology, energy and manufacturing related companies, now has one of the largest recruitment teams in the region serving these sectors.

Richard Hogg, Managing Director of Jackson Hogg Recruitment, said: “Expanding our team allows us to provide an even better service to our clients, it also means we’re now among the North East’s largest specialised recruitment teams for engineering, technology and manufacturing. There had been a trend for recruiters to be part of larger, jack of all trades type organisations but employers in industry now tend to prefer to deal with specialists.”

Joel Brown said: ”I am really excited to have joined Jackson Hogg Recruitment, they sit right at the centre of North East industry. Our clients know that when we say we have the right person for them we mean it, the Jackson Hogg way is to maintain strong connections with companies and candidates, so we know who is suitable for opportunities as soon as they appear.”
