Meet Our Team!

Jamie Smith – Director

I have always been very hardworking and dedicated to my work and previous businesses. I pride my self on customer satisfaction.

I’ve successfully ran my construction business for over ten years and I have always found recruiting the most difficult task. I know first hand how hard it is finding the right skill set and characters so I understand the work involved. I listen to clients and calm frustrations by tailoring a bespoke search to find the best talent that suits them.

SFR Recruitment promise to work closely with you to solve this problem.

Matthew Robinson – Director 

I’ve spent 11 exciting years within recruitment. I’ve sourced candidates for leading manufacturers in the fenestration and building products industry. I continue to work with some really great people who share the same values.

We set up SFR Recruitment Solutions almost 5 years ago and have been working alongside the ironmongery, door and access controls product sectors. We have seen an increase in businesses building teams to support growth areas such as electronic locking and access control solutions, and searching for specific skills and experience when recruiting.

Interestingly, I have come full circle really as my first ever placement was with an ironmongery business by the name of Basta Parsons, a business that was based in Northern Ireland. I recruited a northern area sales manager for them, but sadly they are no longer in business, however they are fondly remembered by many in the industry.

I continue to work with some really great people who share the same values. My style can be described as personable with a consultative aspect. SFR Recruitment Solutions offers a fresh approach to recruitment, furthermore our staff are very approachable and friendly, listening first to the needs of both clients and candidates.

If you are looking for a career within the construction industry I can help find opportunities in these areas: internal sales, external sales, technical sales, marketing, product management, estimating and design roles.

Emma Louise – Consultant

The best thing about my job is being part of such a passionate and dynamic team. We love what we do and all ways try our best.

We are supporting the Architectural Ironmongery, Door and Access Control sectors and invite businesses and candidates to talk to us and see how we can help.

I work part time at SFR and in my spare time I spend quality time with my family. 

Wendy Fenney – Media Executive

I have spent the last 20 years serving the construction products, fenestration and architectural hardware sectors, and I hope that doesn’t make me sound old! I am delighted to join SFR who are a team of expert recruitment professionals who really understand the needs of a client, how to build that all important relationship, and make sure that the recruitment process is successful for all involved.

I continue to serve the sector and have the pleasure of working with companies both big and small, helping them achieve their corporate objectives and sales targets through laser-focused marketing campaigns.

I look forward in supporting SFR with marketing their businesses and achieving their next stage of business growth.
