Privately held company

Engineering People specifically services the engineering and technical industries. Our team is dedicated to providing you with the right people for your business needs. Our end results are satisfied clients as well as safe and secure candidates.

Our recruitment methodology was developed in 2003 to overcome the issue of clients finding that some people sent to them did not have the hands-on technical skills required to hit the ground running. From this, came a fully equipped and purpose-built workshop, electronics station and engineering suite, to complete a hands-on assessment with every candidate.

We know the industry - it is where our consultants come from. The Manufacturing, Automotive, Service, Maintenance, Construction, and Viticulture industries.

Coupled with hands-on experience in Boilermaking, Electrical, Fitting & Turning, Engineering, and HR, we have an intrinsic understanding of the roles we recruit, and this helps us form a close working relationship with our clients and candidates.
