Match the appointment to the work and duration
Temporary cover and contract recruitment need a clear brief. The expected duration, working hours, site location and essential experience affect who may be suitable and available. For technical assignments, identify the machinery and plant environment as well as the qualification required.
- Temporary cover for an existing staffing requirement
- Technical and maintenance assignments
- Production and operations staffing requirements
- Contract appointments for a defined period or assignment
Details for a temporary or contract enquiry
- Reason for the appointment and expected start date
- Assignment duration or proposed end date
- Working hours, shifts and any standby requirements
- Essential qualifications, practical experience and site requirements
- Location, remuneration and who will supervise the work
Agree the role, the search and the next step.
Discuss availability, recruitment terms and the proposed employment arrangement with CME before an appointment is agreed. An urgent requirement still needs clear qualifications and experience criteria. We will discuss the requirement with you; submitting an enquiry does not confirm candidate availability or an immediate placement.
