Leigh brings an X-Factor to the Transline Resource Group

Nov. 29, 2012 - PRLog -- A Castleford-based account manager has been appointed to strengthen the management of a leading UK industrial and driving recruitment agency.

Sheffield-born Leigh Richmond has joined the Transline Resource Group (TRG) and is responsible for the day-to-day running of one of the company’s major industrial accounts.

Named ‘Most Outstanding Outsourced Recruitment Organisation 2012’ in its industry’s annual awards, TRG achieved record sales of £54m in 2011 and is predicting growth of up to £65m this year.

Set up by Managing Directors Paul Beasley and Jon Taylor, it started from a single office in Halifax, Yorkshire, in 1998 and now operates a 57 site UK-wide network as well as having operations in Ireland, Eastern Europe and, very recently, taking a first step into the North American market by launching in Toronto, Canada.

“Transline Resource is a respected recruiter working for some of Britain’s largest retail and logistics organisations,” said Leigh. “The group has a long track record of achievement, awards, innovation, ground breaking training initiatives and career development.

“My role is to provide full flexibility to this Yorkshire based client in making sure people are available to work whenever needed while ensuring that our temporary workers are well deployed. The on-site team works really well together and communication is the key. We regularly update all our staff on performance and what is required and the relationship with the client is second to none – so it’s very much an all-round partnership.”

Leigh, who has previously worked as Recruitment Coordinator for Manpower and an Account Manager for Remploy believes, he added, in “business development through exceptional service and putting efficient processes in place that work to fulfil a full range of recruitment needs.”

Away from work Leigh is a singer-guitarist who runs private vocal lessons and is still recognised from his 2008 appearance on the X-Factor when he reached boot camp stage. He is also a lifelong Sheffield Wednesday supporter.

Transline Resource Managing Director, Paul Beasley, commented:  “We continue to grow our business by going the extra mile and providing clients with a constantly changing mix of specially tailored services and support. There is no doubt that Leigh will make a valuable contribution to that and we are fortunate to have his experience on our side.”
