Jobs in Lincolnshire

As a largely rural county, Lincolnshire has a strong Agricultural economy - and related sectors such as Packaging and Sales also do well there. Candidates looking for a position in one of these areas would do well to seek the services of a recruitment agency - who will often be aware of job vacancies that are just opening up. 

Lincolnshire is also home to a number of notable cities and towns including Lincoln, Scunthorpe, Boston and Spalding. Spalding is a large market town in the South Holland district and makes up around 3% of the county's overall ceremonial population. The majority of the local workforce are employed in Manufacturing, Food and Transport jobs, and this is largely supported by a number of leading business including Bakkavor, Guttridge and Uniq PLC. As with much of the county, Agriculture is another significant industry in the town and the Tulip Parade attracted between 40K-100K tourists to Spalding every year, until it ended in 2013.

The quality and quantity of land in the region ensures Lincolnshire is one of the most important counties in the UK in terms of providing food for the rest of the country. Staff will also find employment in the Tourism Industry, with the county's long coastline generating many opportunities in this sector. The prevalance of the Agriculture and Tourism Industries does mean that there is a seasonal nature to employment in the county with unemployment often rising in the winter months. Part-time and temporary employment is therefore popular in the county - and recruitment agencies in Lincolnshire are perfectly placed to facilitate this.

As well as agriculture and tourism, 20% of the firms employing 200 or more in Lincolnshire are in the Retail or Banking / Finance Sector. So recruitment agencies are also likely to be able to find staff for jobs in these areas.
