Tarmac Launches Biggest Recruitment Drive

Tarmac has launched its biggest recruitment drive to attract the leaders and workforce of tomorrow.

Demonstrating that the construction industry has much to offer people at an early stage in their career, the new opportunities span the length and breadth of mainland UK and will enable graduates and school leavers to earn while they learn.

Entry-level jobs in operations, engineering, commercial and logistics are available alongside technical, financial and other support positions as the company embarks on a significant programme of succession planning. Further roles in human resources, procurement and general management are also available, with a total of 185 opportunities available.

Peter Buckley, senior vice president for Tarmac, said: "We are mindful that, throughout our industry, there is a need to attract people who can bring fresh ideas and new ways of thinking into the business – whilst also learning from our highly experienced existing workforce.

"There's so much more to Tarmac than people may think and that's why we are casting our net far and wide to find the right people for the right jobs.

"Joining our early careers community will throw open doors to a vast and varied world of work where, thanks to the culture of success we have built, it really is so much more than just a job."

To support its recruitment drive, Tarmac has created a jobs portal which lists all the available roles and how to apply for them. There are also useful sections for parents and teachers, as well as detailed information on how the company supports employee development.
