Fast And Efficient
In 2005, Land Rover needed 20 auto electricians at their Solihull site for trim and final work on the new Range Rover models. Within three weeks we had the right people on site on an initial four-week contract.
Flexible
In 2007, Land Rover recommended us to their colleagues on the Jaguar site, and we were tasked with sourcing 19 multi-skilled maintenance engineers for robotics and PLC maintenance, body-in-white, trim and final, paint shop and press. We found and placed the required people on a project-led rolling contract that lasted a full 16 months. And when the XJ went into production in 2009, Jaguar asked them all to come back.
Cost Effective
Now, with our help, Jaguar Land Rover wants to try something completely new. The new Land Rover 405 and 494 models are being built at the Castle Bromwich site, and Land Rover needs more suitably skilled, permanent people available to work on the line. The plan is to train 20 new apprentices ‘on the job’ while using 25 of our contract workers to do preventative maintenance work until the apprentices are fully qualified. This novel approach could prove a more flexible, efficient and cost-effective way of getting their own people skilled up. If it succeeds, this model may be rolled out across the group.
Perfectly Placed
A significant amount of planning and organisation happens long before a new model is launched. We are perfectly placed to help you identify and plan for your skilled labour requirements on a project-by-project basis.
