Gary Telfer’s Summary

Business Development Manager with Spectrum Personnel Ltd., in Motherwell, Lanarkshire.
Involved in new sales across each of our specialist divisions, Distribution, Manufacturing, Office and Engineering.
I am involved in various projects, for example, design and implementation of IT systems, website development, new marketing ventures like Spectrum on line TV, social network advertising, all media marketing including e-marketing campaigns.
I came into the recruitment industry in the early nineties with HMS as they were then. First role was recruitment consultant within the Construction division. I moved through various divisions as the years went on and the company changed to Initial Personnel. I was manager of two branches, Paisley then Glasgow before getting the Scottish Regional Manager role with Initial Engineering Personnel.
I have been with Spectrum Personnel for seven years and in that time have seen the business move from a mainly distribution sector focused business to a highly professional player within the Scottish region with a range of awards and accolades.
My goal is to see the company grasp technology and be at the forefront of our sector with regards to evolving on-line business tools and marketing strategies.
