FOOD/FMCG INDUSTRY SPECIALIST

Food manufacturing can be relentless. Early starts, long shifts, tight margins and constant pressure to keep things moving. When a permanent role is left unfilled — or the wrong person is brought in — it doesn’t just affect output, it affects people.

​

That’s why we focus solely on permanent recruitment within food and FMCG manufacturing across Wales and the South West.

​

We take the time to really understand your site, your team and the realities of the environment. Not just what the job description says, but what the role is actually like on a day-to-day basis — and the kind of person who will settle in, cope with the pressure and stay.

​

We don’t believe in quick fixes or short-term solutions. We care about getting the right person in place for the long run. Someone your team can rely on. Someone who wants to be there.

​

For candidates, we know that moving jobs in food manufacturing isn’t a decision taken lightly. Stability matters. Security matters. We’ll always have honest conversations, talk things through properly and make sure the role is right for you — not just now, but long term.

​

This is recruitment built on trust, care and long-standing relationships.
Not volume. Not shortcuts.


Just doing the right thing, for the right reasons

“Thank you to Haystack Selection for saving the day once again.

We’ve worked with a number of agencies over the years, including large national ones, but Haystack consistently stand out.

They may be small, but they pack a serious punch. With Angela’s 20+ years of experience, we always know we’re in safe hands.

Highly recommended.”
