Richard Gilbert

I lead our Industrial teams, delivering agile, high-quality staffing solutions across a broad range of sectors.

I specialise in supporting clients with a wide variety of temporary requirements, from office-based roles such as administration, customer service, finance, HR, sales and management, through to industrial positions including logistics, warehousing and production. Whether it’s short-term cover, long-term assignments, maternity or sickness cover, or temp-to-perm solutions, I pride myself on delivering flexible, tailored support that aligns with each client’s specific needs.

Temporary recruitment can be an invaluable resource for businesses navigating change, managing peak workloads, or supporting growth. It also offers a highly effective “try before you buy” approach when considering longer-term hires.

Having spent several years with Hewett Recruitment, I’ve built strong, lasting relationships with clients across multiple industries. This enables me to truly understand their culture, challenges and expectations, ensuring we consistently deliver the right fit.

I’m a genuine people person and thrive in a collaborative, high-performing team environment. I thoroughly enjoy the responsibility of leading our temporary division and working closely with both clients and candidates to achieve the best possible outcomes.
