Our clients are from a diverse selection of Manufacturing and Industrial businesses and range from SMEs to major global corporates. DSA help organisations recruit and develop professionals across all functions including Technical, Finance, IT, Supply Chain, Logistics and HR.

Competition in manufacturing across the UK, Europe and worldwide has never been more fierce; this is reflected in the ever increasing need to refine, develop and expand skills in the sector and focus on gaining competitive advantage through training and market awareness.

Manufacturing in the UK has seen a decline over recent years, but this has resulted in there being fewer skilled and qualified people to take up specific roles. As with many sectors, such as Logistics and Supply Chain, employers now place great emphasis on recruiting skilled personnel who have a professional or relevant academic qualification.

Recent assignments include:
Sales Director – Global metals
Operations Director – Leading metal components business (UK)
Manufacturing Manager – Automotive Tier 1
Head of Logistics (Germany) – Automotive Tier 2
Plant Manager – Industrial Components (Global)
Health & Safety Manager – Global Metals
HR Manager – Metal Components
Sales Manager – Metal products (Netherlands)
Quality Manager – Food Manufacturing
Supply Chain Director – Global Chemicals
Maintenance Manager – Flexible Packaging
