Yourfoodjob.com Director, Michelle Lilley explains: “Our digital resourcing solutions, particularly the Executive Recruiter Packages, are used by many of the leading food brands and manufacturing businesses in the UK and internationally including Pepsico, Bakkavor, Greencore, Moy Park, Thorntons, Hovis, Burton’s Biscuits and Mars. We support them in building their employer brand, identifying top food industry talent and reducing both the time and cost in hiring senior professionals.  Bottom line is Yourfoodjob saves clients recruitment costs with one client specifically declaring that we supported them in delivering a £150,000 reduction in recruitment costs in a financial year.  And they are not alone in this level of saving.

“These solutions, combined with our continued commitment to dedicated and committed service provision have enabled us to become the leading food-specific job board in the country, with 75% of our clients offering us repeat business.

“The last two years have seen demand for our offer increasing dramatically and we have grown the number of clients we work with.  This has resulted in team growth, and we have recruited high calibre commercial managers to facilitate the expansion. The next three-year strategy is focused on new service offers and exponential growth, which will be greatly supported by our newly enlarged office space.”
