The global industrial and warehouse automation market exceeds $300 billion in value and continues to grow, driven by labour shortages, supply-chain optimisation, and rapid advances in robotics, controls, and smart logistics.
As the automation industry continues to grow rapidly, so does the need for talent that is well versed in automation technologies. However, the demand is outstripping supply, leading to a deficit in skilled candidates available. The competition for these candidates is fierce, so it is such a benefit having an agency that will work closely with you and help you stand out from the crowd.
As automation is such a technical industry, you need a specialist recruiter that is going to understand the job description and your needs as a business straight away. More general recruiters will often sell you a dream and pretend to know what they’re talking about to get the vacancy, and then not move in the right direction. Having someone that knows the market, with an established network will be the difference between making a successful hire or not.
