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.
