Discover the impact of a retained partner in our Houghton Hams case study.

Houghton Hams is a family-run pork manufacturer that has been running from 1983. They stock a range of FMCG enterprises such as Waitrose, Ocado, Morrisons and Wetherspoons.

The relationship was formed in April 2022 when Owen Daniels were instructed to perform contingent search and selection services on a number of permanent vacancies. Due to the nature of the business and rural location, Houghton Hams had been struggling to recruit specialized manufacturing staff. Within 2 weeks Owen Daniels successfully placed 2 candidates in vacancies that had been outstanding for a number of months.

As the relationship developed due to success rates, Owen Daniels presented the Retained Search solution, with a view to solidify the relationship further and meet the heightened growth targets.
