ASTUTE’s Commercial Division allows us to provide a ‘full service’ recruitment solution to clients across technical sectors. A number of our key clients require ‘technical’ staff, but also ask Astute to assist with ‘Commercial’ and ‘Administration’ positions.

The Commercial Division is led by experienced Consultants who appreciate that clients don’t always need Engineers and Technicians! There will often be requirements in areas such as Human Resources, Marketing, Customer Service and Sales! ASTUTE’s consultants like to specialise, and focus on recruiting particular types of people…it’s what we find works best! Because of this we developed the Commercial Division to have a specific focus on these types of roles.

Our Commercial Team have a strong track record of supply in sectors such as Pharmaceuticals, Medical Devices, FMCG, Electronics and Engineering. The benefit to your business is having a Consultant who understands the Commercial / Administration side of business, but it also means ASTUTE can supply across the majority of skill sets! This enables us to provide a complete recruitment solution, whether technical or commercial, and saves you the need to use different agencies depending on the type of person you wish to recruit.

We find that recruiting Commercial / Administrational staff requires a different approach to the norm. Core competencies are always crucial, but personality is also critical! We try to meet with as many candidates as possible, to understand their motivations, personality, and their potential fit with our client’s company culture. It’s therefore very important that we meet regularly with our clients!
