Recruiting Engineers in Lincolnshire’s Rural Manufacturing Landscape

SimWest Engineering Recruitment works with engineering and manufacturing companies across Lincolnshire, helping employers secure experienced engineers who can perform in production-led, machinery-led and industrial environments.

With a strong footprint in food manufacturing, agricultural machinery, processing operations, and engineering workshops, Lincolnshire has a demand for practical, hands-on engineers rather than volume applicants. We focus on sourcing engineers who can step into a role and contribute quickly - not candidates who look right on paper but struggle on the shop floor.
