Job Description
Senior Consultant – Operations & Manufacturing
North East & North Yorkshire
Jackson Hogg | Newcastle, Teesside or Leeds
At Jackson Hogg, we don’t sit behind a desk waiting for roles to land. We’re in the market - on factory floors, touring sites, meeting leaders and building long-term partnerships.
We’re looking for a Senior Consultant who thrives on being out and about, enjoys face-to-face conversations, and takes real pride in understanding how manufacturing businesses operate.
The Opportunity
You’ll join our Operations team, recruiting mid–senior professionals across engineering and regulated manufacturing environments, covering salaries from £35k to £120k.
Your focus will span:
* Manufacturing & Production Leadership
* Maintenance & Reliability
* Quality, HSE & Compliance
* Manufacturing & Process Engineering
Geographically, you’ll own and develop relationships across the North East and North Yorkshire, working closely with factory and site leaders.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Spending time on-site with clients - factory tours, operational walkarounds, leadership meetings
* Building trusted, long-term relationships rather than transactional recruitment
* Managing and growing a strong client portfolio across manufacturing and engineering
* Delivering retained, exclusive and contingent assignments
* Acting as a true market expert and advisor within your specialism
What We’re Looking For
* An experienced recruitment consultant (or senior consultant) with a strong delivery and client track record
* Someone who loves being in the market, not just on the phone
* Comfortable recruiting across technical and operational roles
* Commercially astute, relationship-driven and highly credi ble with senior stakeholders
* Background in manufacturing, engineering or operations recruitment is highly desirable
What’s On Offer
* Strong basic salary reflective of experience
* Up to 40% commission structure
* Flexible working hours with trust and autonomy
* Clear progression and the opportunity to shape and own your market
* Supportive, high-performing team with a strong regional brand
If you’re motivated by building partnerships, understanding how businesses really run, and want to be part of a high-performing, down-to-earth team - we’d love to talk.
