Jonathan Lee Search & Selection launched as evolution of Executive Recruitment

Published on: 10th July 2017

Leading engineering and manufacturing recruiter Jonathan Lee Recruitment has launched a Search & Selection division to help businesses overcome increasing difficulty in finding and attracting the right senior technical and management talent.
The enhanced service is an evolution of its established executive recruitment brand and a response to a rise in demand for its headhunt and retained search solutions.
Jonathan Lee, Chairman of the Group, comments: “We want to build on the excellent services our executive search business has provided in sourcing the highest calibre board level appointments for clients since 2013.  Our focused and personalised approach can add enormous value in the hunt for leadership and senior technical talent for our clients, not just at board level, but across their whole organisation.
“Widening the scope to give clients access to exclusive retained and specific headhunt solutions across disciplines and levels has proved successful,” adds Simon Roberts, Associate Director of Jonathan Lee Search & Selection.  “We see a real appetite from our clients to work more closely with us to find, attract and retain the right people to drive their growth in the future.
“Jonathan Lee Search & Selection is staffed by industry-experienced executives, so when engaging with clients and applicants alike, we can apply real-world experience and understanding. We take great pride in accurately translating our clients’ needs into detailed specifications.  This gives us the insight to not only search for the right skills, but to select and place the candidates that fit the culture and vision of our clients.
“As testament to our approach, many of our placed candidates engage with us when they need to recruit, having themselves appreciated the time and care we take in finding the right people.”
The Jonathan Lee Search & Selection brand benefits from the highly recognised and trusted reputation of the wider group as the UK and European technical recruiter of choice.  Matthew Heath, Associate Director commented: “The team is excited to work in collaboration with the wider Jonathan Lee brands as our markets remain very closely aligned. We will also look to continue to grow our international reach through our established membership of global executive search network IMSA.”
Jonathan Lee concludes: “Our executive team has played a huge part in driving the demand for search and selection services to date and we want to make sure that we extend this and to build on the legacy of Adrian Davis, the managing director of our executive brand who sadly, recently passed away.  We are confident that Jonathan Lee Search & Selection will enhance our brand and deliver excellent service to clients and candidates alike.”
