Jark Recruitment opens new branch in Maidstone

Jark Recruitment, one of the UK’s top one hundred recruitment companies, has recently opened a new Industrial branch in Maidstone, the commercial heart of Kent. Jark’s Maidstone branch will provide numerous employment options for the 800,000 strong Maidstone workforce in temporary recruitment for the Industrial market.

Mark Brown, Southern Area Manager for Jark, comments: “We are continuing with our growth target within the Industrial, Construction and Commercial sectors and Maidstone is one of many new branch openings planned. Kent is a new area to us but we will continue to build on our reputation in the rest of the UK as a professional and preferred supplier to many local businesses.”

Jark will provide temporary and permanent recruitment solutions to the Industrial market, including driving, logistics, manufacturing, technical, warehouse and catering.

“From an early stage in Jark’s development we identified Maidstone as an ideal location to introduce another Jark branch where we can reach local, regional, UK, European and even world markets thanks to its location on the main transport routes between London and continental Europe. It is also possible to reach all towns in Kent in under an hour via an excellent public transport network, including railway stations and bus services allowing workers to reach all corners of the county. Its strategic location and cost effective setting holds potential for the expansion and development of the business, both in the city centre and its range of prestigious business parks.”

“The forecasted economic growth and development for Maidstone matches Jark’s own expansion plans, and we look forward to developing our business alongside the city and economy as it grows. £200 million has recently been invested through major projects within the area, which promises Maidstone to be an up-and-coming area to invest in.”

“We are pleased to have put a team in place already at the Maidstone branch with the recruitment of experienced Senior Consultants, Louise Ferguson, Sam Chester and On-Site Co-ordinator Oto Teniss. We are looking to further expand the team over the next few months to consolidate our position within Maidstone’s recruitment market, and drive the branch forward.”
