About Datum

A specialist recruitment business with a practical engineering focus.

Datum Recruitment was created to give precision engineering employers and skilled candidates a more focused permanent recruitment service.

Why Datum?

A fixed reference point for a better recruitment decision.

In engineering, a datum is the reference from which an accurate measurement is taken. Datum Recruitment applies the same thinking to recruitment: establish the real requirement first, then assess every introduction against it.

The business specialises in permanent appointments across CNC machining, precision engineering and manufacturing. The approach combines recruitment knowledge with a practical understanding of machine-shop, production and engineering environments.

The aim is simple: relevant conversations, honest communication and appointments that make sense for both sides.

01

Specialist

A defined engineering market rather than trying to recruit every type of role for every sector.

02

Permanent

A clear focus on long-term career moves and permanent additions to engineering teams.

03

Straightforward

Clear expectations, realistic feedback and communication that respects both employer and candidate.

“Understand the exact requirement. Search with purpose. Introduce the right people.”

Datum Recruitment approach
