Direct search for automotive
For automotive suppliers, we look for quality engineers, process and production specialists, maintenance staff, design engineers and managers. We have worked with automotive companies over the long term.
Why these roles are hard to fill
Automotive depends on standards, audits and precise processes. A quality engineer usually needs experience with IATF 16949 and tools such as FMEA or 8D. A process engineer needs experience with the specific technology of the line. People with this combination work for other suppliers and do not respond to job ads.
The second trap is volume. When a job ad brings dozens of CVs that do not meet the requirements, the quality or production team loses time sorting them instead of doing its own work.
How we work
We search in companies with the same type of production and customers. For each candidate we add a comment: what they can do, why they are considering a change, when they can start and what salary they expect.
- We translate your brief into the language of the market: the real content of the job, the team, the conditions and what makes the role interesting.
- We map the companies and positions where suitable people work today.
- We approach them directly, including people who are not actively looking for a job.
- We present a shortlist with a comment on each candidate: why they match, their motivation, availability and expectations.
We usually present the first candidates matched to your brief within 10 days of the moment we agree on the role profile together. A named consultant is responsible for each search.
