Silven Recruiment

We consult with the Food Industry, and help major food manufacturers to fill management positions - particularly those they’ve struggled to fill themselves. We have established relationships with and recruit regularly for the following:

· Coca Cola

· Muller Wiseman

· Bakkavor and many more

In the companies of the above list, we’ve placed multiple people on a regular basis. We also have transaction and developing relationships with many others. We have people working at Tayto, and work with Kellogs through their PSL.

Our team has a combined experience of around 100 years in food manufacturing recruitment, and most of our team have worked together between 3& 10 years (through Quantica, Crossley House, and Xceli - all of which are food recruitment companies). In our 100 years of food manufacturing experience,we’ve collected a database with thousands of candidates in food manufacturing,and have been speaking to the same high calibre candidates in some cases decades. With both time and experience we’ve learnt what is outstanding, and what’s a lie. Who we can trust and who can help you best.

When it comes to placing someone, we meet both our clients and candidates. We reference check. To be honest this should be taken as read. What sets us apart is we know which candidates look great on paper, but are lying on their CV. Often because we placed their superior. We know who has become an interim because they’re outstanding and who became one because it hides a problem.

One other advantage we have; whilst we do a huge amount in food recruitment, we’re currently not partnered with a specific Head Office. So if you decide to develop a relationship with us, all your competitors are fair game when we head hunt.
