Jenny was officially Jonathan Lee Recruitment’s first recruit with the business being run before her arrival by Jonathan Lee and his wife Lindi. She began as Jonathan’s PA and was soon recruited to the position of Recruitment Assistant. She saw the Company grow from strength to strength expanding to take in other regions including Wakefield, Leicester, Basildon and St Albans.

The Company now employs over 120 people delivering professional level recruitment to over 20 manufacturing and engineering industries with particular focus on aerospace and defence, automotive and construction.

“I’m very proud to work for Jonathan Lee Recruitment,” says Jenny. “It was very exciting to join the business during its early days and watch it become what it is today. It’s been great fun and finding people a job that really suits them is hugely satisfying. I have been particularly pleased to see so many of them become valued clients coming back to us for their own company recruitment needs.”

One of Jenny’s key memories was during the recession of the 1980s and 90s when Jonathan Lee Recruitment won a major assignment to recruit 175 specialist staff and managers for Toyota’s Burnaston and Deeside manufacturing plants, “This was a major landmark in Jonathan Lee Recruitment’s history and was the start of our real growth” said Jenny.

Now working for Factura, Jonathan Lee Recruitment’s executive search company in Belbroughton, Jenny was presented with a gold watch as part of her 30th year anniversary celebrations with the Company, and whilst she is not committing to another 30 years, she is not thinking of retiring any time soon.

Jonathan Lee said: “Jenny has been an outstanding employee who has shown great loyalty to the Company. She has worked alongside us from our very humble beginnings and has played a key supporting role in our growth. I cannot thank her enough for her immense contribution.”

LOYAL SERVICE

When Jenny Oakes joined Jonathan Lee Recruitment the Company comprised of three staff based in a small office in Stourbridge with nothing more than an upmarket typewriter, a filing cabinet and a telephone. Now, 30 years later and still with the Company, Jenny marvels at how things have changed and the Company has grown.
