Yorkshire & North East

Yorkshire & North East headhunting specialists

Yorkshire and the North East is sustained by a robust manufacturing base spanning automotive, electronics, engineered components, food & beverage and process & chemical. The consumer goods & retail giants Asda and Wm Morrisons, power generation provider Drax Group, utilities provider Kelda Group, and the aviation firm Dart Group are all headquartered in West Yorkshire. York is home to the head office of house builders Persimmon Homes, and the car manufacturer Nissan has its UK base in Sunderland. The health & social care industry is also a major employer, with the region accommodating an abundance of NHS Foundation Trust hospitals.

Leeds is the biggest financial services centre outside of London and, across the wider landscape, the business & professional services companies specialising in financial tax & assurance, legal services and real estate yield valuable career openings.

Education is especially well represented with many universities - including five in the Russell Group - and a wealth of prestigious independent schools. The local authorities too are a source of valuable leadership and management roles. More opportunities are in construction, engineering, public sector & not-for-profit, technology and travel, hospitality & leisure.
