About Us
At SLR Recruitment, we are proud to embody the spirit of female empowerment in every aspect of our work.
Driven by our commitment to integrity and honesty, we stand by our promise to deliver exceptional results, every time.
We are the bridge between shipbuilders, marine refit employers, and skilled tradespeople, ensuring projects are completed on time and within budget. Situated strategically on the south coast, SLR has cultivated strong relationships with UK shipyards, providing them with the skilled workforce they need.
With 17 years of experience and a team of 7 dedicated professionals, we understand the critical importance of labour supply during peak contract periods. This is where we shine. Shipbuilding and refit trades are not just our business; they are our passion. Our deep-rooted knowledge and expertise enable us to navigate the complexities of the industry with ease.
Sectors
Our in-depth knowledge of the recruitment processes within each of the following sectors sets us apart from generic recruitment consultants. By understanding the unique needs of each sector and fostering long-lasting, trusting relationships with firms both large and small, we offer the most effective recruitment journeys for employers and prospective employees alike.
We understand the unique demands of the marine sector, offering expert recruitment services for shipbuilding, logistics, and offshore operations.
We tailor our recruitment approach to the needs of local sectors, fostering strong relationships with organisations of all sizes to create successful pathways for both employers and candidates.
Specialising in nuclear technology and energy, we offer insights and guidance to meet the industry’s unique needs.
