Packaging Technologist – Shropshire

This position has now been filled, but has been left on our website as we have other similar vacancies on an ongoing basis.
More importantly, we have vacancies that are not advertised due to their confidential nature. It is therefore in your interest to email your CV, as a Word document, depending on your sector, to:

• Head of Packaging recruitment – Greg Nelson – greg@harrison-scott.co.uk
• Head of Print recruitment – Neil Pearson – neil@harrison-scott.co.uk
• Head of Paper recruitment – Gary Young – gary@harrison-scott.co.uk
• Board level, account management, and all levels of sales vacancies – George Thompson – george@harrison-scott.co.uk

Our divisional heads will then email your CV internally to the consultant who specialises in your exact sector. For example, a category of packaging is cartons, a category of print is print management. In fact, we have over 30 specialist categories.
Our specialist consultant will contact you if we have a live vacancy that matches, or in the near future as soon as a good match to your skill set and experience becomes available.
