Being a recruitment specialist dedicated to the window, door and fenestration industry we have watched how the spread of COVID-19 has impacted recruitment prior to the government’s lockdown. 1^st interviews were being changed to telephone calls and video calls where possible, candidates completed inductions via video conferencing and many companies put recruitment on hold.

Since the measures introduced last Monday and to follow Government guidelines the majority of the industry has shut down in every capacity in which they could and to protect our staff the decision was made to close the Chase Taylor office temporarily.

There is uncertainty surrounding our industry and understandably recruitment will be delayed until it is right to continue. It’s important for companies to support each other in these times of hardship for our industry to survive, keeping the supply chain and cash flow moving is crucial otherwise we will see mass casualties commercially.

Chase Taylor will support our candidates and clients in any way they can whilst the office is closed. Managing Director Mat Gibson is available and can be contacted via telephone: 01543 897800 or email: info@chasetaylor.co.uk
