The Christmas peak season has resulted in Assist Resourcing expanding the workforce for three new clients in the North West.

Thirty production workers have been recruited for the regional operation of a nationwide logistics business while around 20 flexible workers are currently being employed every day for a national food manufacturer.

Another 100 people are now in place as customer service advisers at the call centre operation of one of the UK’s biggest online retailers.

Craig Hardy, MD, said: “This is good news for the local economy as more than 150 people have now been placed in jobs.

“It's the busiest time of the year for all three of these new clients who are hitting the peak of their operations.

“We are delighted to be working with such major national recognised brands and supplying them with a tailored workforce to suit their needs.”
