This successful family-owned energy efficiency business has not only made significant inroads abroad, but they have also experienced a massive boom right here at home in the UK. As we recently reported back in December, Mark Group is expanding its sales team dramatically in 2014, and is currently looking to fill up to 100 key roles within the organisation.
To kick off their extensive recruitment drive for the new year, Mark Group will be holding a Customer Information Centre Open Day next week, on 13 February 2014, as a means to connect with potential employees within the industry. In a previous interview with Jon Sleightholme, Recruitment and Talent Management Director at Mark Group, he confirmed that the company would be looking to hire in the region of 100 new recruits in the UK come the new year. That means now is a great time to get in touch and explore the several great opportunities that Mark Group has to offer.
The Customer Information Centre Open Day also reflects the company’s renewed focus on making theirrecruitment strategy that much more personal and interactive. This event therefore fits in with their wider approach of forming good working relationships with prospective candidates and making sure they work alongside people who understand Mark Group’s key principles. For starters, if you have a positive attitude, good work ethic, and are adaptable in an industry that is constantly changing, then you could be just what they’re looking for.
So if you’re in the Leicester area, why not pop down to their Customer Information Centre Open Day and find out how to take your career to the next level? Mark Group will be giving candidates the rare chance to interview for some incredible roles on the day, including many within the customer service division. If you have previous customer facing experience, are looking for a flexible position, or are in search of the perfect student work opportunity, this open day could very well be the springboard you’ve been waiting for. Many of the roles have immediate start dates, giving attendees access to on-the-spot interviews and a real chance to land their dream job.
As Jon says, “Our open day provides the opportunity for potential new employees to learn more about Mark Group, find out about the roles we are recruiting for and see the environment in which they could be working. Mark Group is a progressive business and our Customer Information Centre has a team-focussed atmosphere where employees work hard and are rewarded for their efforts. We are looking for keen, positive-minded individuals who want to be part of a successful international business and would like to work in the sustainable green energy sector.”
More than 130 members of staff have joined the team at Mark Group’s new Customer Information Centre since it opened last summer, all of whom have received initial and ongoing training in their roles. As a company with a great legacy – and many exciting prospects for the future – Mark Group’s intense current recruitment focus will certainly open doors for several job seekers in the UK. You too could become part of something big and play a meaningful part in the broader sustainability business.
