Headhunting business launches mid-market recruitment agency

Simon and Emma Robinson

Huddersfield-based agency Red Diamond Executive Headhunters has launched a new middle market recruitment company.

Red Diamond Recruitment will operate from the head office in Huddersfield alongside the headhunting business, with clients in a wide range of sectors, including manufacturing, accounting, aviation, construction, pharmaceuticals, electronic products and the beauty industry.

Roles available will include a range of management and mid-level positions in companies that are looking for future leaders.

Two new recruiters have already been appointed to run the new arm of the business and it is anticipated a further two hires will be made in the coming months.

Red Diamond founder and MD, Emma Robinson, said it had become obvious that clients were looking to fill a variety of positions that did not necessarily attract the higher salaries looked after by the headhunting side of the business.

She added: “The corporate world is beginning to reopen after an unbelievably difficult year and we are seeing clients recruiting for a wide range of roles, not just those in the top salary bracket that our headhunting business would typically deal with.

“At the same time, the pandemic has sadly left a lot of talented people looking for a new challenge.

“We want to help existing clients further strengthen their teams but are also looking to work with new clients who can benefit from our recruitment expertise, innovative search techniques and dedication to excellence.”

Red Diamond Executive Headhunters was founded in 2011 and has enjoyed a raft of recent client wins across the aerospace, health and beauty and construction products sectors.
