Strong first
year for Fleet
Recruitment
A
Tees Valley recruitment agency is
aiming to grow after enjoying a
strong first year.
Fleet Recruitment, launched in
December 2014, provides recruitment and
training services spanning a wide range
of sectors including sales and marketing,
commercial and automotive.
Fleet’s six-man team, based at Aycliffe
Business Park, is already working with
a number of well-known national brands
from global manufacturing firms to worldrenowned luxury car dealerships.
“The business was born out of a
frustration with the industry and we wanted
to run a business based on key values, not
false promises,” said managing director Neil
O’Connor.
“We have had an incredibly successful first
year working with a number of the UK’s most
well-known brands.
“Client feedback has been outstanding
– a testament to our deep-rooted values of
honesty, fairness, transparency and great
communication.
“Our experienced and specialist recruiters
ensure that we manage our candidates’
expectations about the company, the role,
culture, targets and of course the rewards.”

Head of sales Michelle Spinks added: “Our
approach is very simple. If we don’t truly
understand the competencies, qualifications,
experience and cultural fit required, we won’t
take on a vacancy.
“We have to understand the impact a new
employee needs to make and how quickly
they need to make it, be it operationally or
financially.
“Understanding the importance, role and
the part our applicant plays is crucial.
“Our fact-find is extremely thorough and
our clients have been surprised at some of
the questions we ask and the lengths we go
to. It’s something we are very proud of.”
Fleet Recruitment operates a very lean
business model that enables them to
combine their outstanding service levels with
very competitive pricing.
They have severed recruitment costs for
many clients and fix fees at one competitive
percentage irrespective of the size of the
salary.
