Ellis Fairbank’s Industry Practice has worked closely with the UK’s Engineering and Manufacturing businesses for over 15 years and has developed a superb reputation for completing and delivering significant and sometimes complex recruitment campaigns. We can safely say that EF is one of the leading Executive Search & Selection companies within the sector.

Our comprehensive understanding of the objectives and needs of the industrial marketplace is born of experience and ensures we are able to source candidates with the skills and experience needed to add maximum value to your business.  True experts in our field, we offer a bespoke and incomparable service to our clients. We work strategically, consultatively and thoroughly to find the best candidates in the market, not just on the market.

We have come a long way from being a general industrial recruiter and now operate in niche areas such as Process Engineering, Fluid Handling, Automation & Control, Measurement & Instrumentation and Power Generation Equipment markets. We work with both Blue Chip and Small to Medium Enterprises who provide equipment and services to major customers in Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Energy, Food & Beverage, Pharmaceutical and Water & Utilities sectors.

Ellis Fairbank works predominantly at mid to senior management and board level appointments and adopts recruitment methods appropriate to this calibre of candidate and client. Our expertise has enabled us to recruit positions across Technical, Engineering, Operations, Project Management and Sales functions. Our clients are often international businesses and as such we work closely with our International colleagues to provide a truly global service.
