Aaron Pollard
Senior Recruitment Consultant - Production and Manufacturing
I am coming into my 4th year with Mainstay and I joined the team to set up our Production and Manufacturing arm.
Within this time, we have gone from strength to strength and I have loved watching us implement different departments within the business from IT, Facilities Management, Engineering and Central Services and I have thoroughly enjoyed watching each team grow.
In my current role, I am the Senior Consultant for our Production & Manufacturing division. Within my 4 years at Mainstay, I have been tasked with growing the division from a new start up desk to a now fully operational team where we are currently working alongside some of the largest Engineering and Manufacturing businesses in the UK. Our Production & Manufacturing division offers various methods of recruitment solutions to our clients from temp, temp to perm, contract and permanent recruitment, specifically within the Automotive, Aerospace, Architectural & Construction, Bespoke Engineering and Distribution Sectors.
My main passion for the role would certainly have to be the full 360 sales and account management element. I thoroughly enjoy winning new business, building relationships with new customers, listening to their recruitment needs and help fulfil and exceed their requirements by offering tailored recruitment solutions, finding the best candidates for the roles needed and manage the process along the way.
My biggest achievement to date, would certainly have to be bringing on trainee consultants for our team to help kickstart their own recruitment careers by offering dedicated training, development and support and watch them earn well deserved promotions and progress through their careers.
The best part about the Production & Manufacturing division would definitely be the diverse amount of positions we recruit for and the different candidates we speak to on a daily basis from FLT Drivers, Assembly Operatives, CNC Machinists, Brake Press Operators, Welder Fabricators, Maintenance & Service Engineers, to Senior Production Managers – one role to the next is never the same.
Outside of life at Mainstay and recruitment, I spend almost 99.9% of my life watching football and I am a big Manchester United Fan (ex Glory Hunter). I also have a real passion for bodybuilding and have been training now for the past 10 years.
The rest of my social life is usually spent going out for food and drinks with my partner, friends and family. And not forgetting taking my Pug, Toby, aka Tobz, Mr Tobz, Wobz, etc, etc. out for walks.
