zenithpeople* has been operating within the Manufacturing, Engineering and Logistics recruitment sectors in the North East of England since 2001. We are a regional specialist, and we pride ourselves on our in-depth knowledge and experience of our chosen industrial sectors.

Over the years our Clients have been impressed with the way we work and many of them have asked us to help recruit their I.T. staff. In 2007 we added I.T. to our specialist sectors and we now have in-house expertise with over 10 years I.T. recruitment experience.

We aim to maintain a fresh approach - combining the best of tried and tested recruitment methodologies with innovation and a tailored style. zenithpeople* is a friendly and professional recruitment consultancy. We care about our work and enjoy working with our Clients to deliver effective recruitment solutions to meet their diverse requirements.

We were founded in 2001, in Tyne and Wear, and since then have focussed our energies on the North East. This gives us a true regional expertise and the ability to service key centres across the North East. We are a youthful company, with a fresh outlook, willing to try something new and different and not tied to what is staid or traditional, though we don’t overlook the value of experience!

We don't claim to be all things to all people - working within the manufacturing, engineering, logistics and I.T. sectors, we know our market, and therefore feel we can add real value through our industrial expertise.

Client Testimonials

"We at Allied Bakeries, Gateshead have worked with zenithpeople* for over 4 years now. They have provided us with Engineering staff both on a contract and permanent basis, and what we like about them is that they understand our business as many of their consultants are from an Engineering or Manufacturing background themselves, and this gives them an edge over competitors."

James Laggan, Engineering Manager: Allied Bakeries

"zenithpeople* have recently conducted a recruitment campaign for us and the style, detail and information they provided us with not only on the short-listed candidates but the applicants generally make them a preferred supplier. Additionally they have carried out a series of psychometric tests on the individuals which again helps enormously in the selection process. The candidates also found the feedback of great value which reflects upon us an an employer."

Susan Huntsman, HR Manager: Schmitz Cargobull

One recruitment assignment was particularly difficult, others had tried unsuccessfully to fill the vacancy but Zenith stuck doggedly to the task until it was successfully closed."
