Halesowen recruitment agencies - Agency Central

Halesowen is a town in the West Midlands, just a short distance from Birmingham. Its proximity to the Black Country’s principal city has made it an attractive location for both new businesses and professionals. This has created a demand for local recruitment agencies.

Employment in Halesowen

Historically, Halesowen was built on nail making and iron production. It also benefited from a strong mining industry, which included 130 mines - the largest of which being Coombs Wood colliery. Local recruitment now focuses on the service sector, with 80% of the surrounding Borough of Dudley being employed in these lines of work.

Residents looking for job opportunities will find Halesowen high street to be a source of vacancies, as well as the nearby Cornbow Shopping Centre. Elsewhere, some of the most notable Halesowen employers include mFortune, West Midlands Hospital and Sandvick - which has its headquarters just off Manor Way.

Finding a recruitment agency

Employment services in Halesowen are located throughout the town and serve a wide range of industries. There is a mix of specialist and multi-sector recruitment agencies, predominantly concentrated in the town centre. Many of these are SMEs based in shared office buildings, such as Maybrook House on Queensway. Away from the centre, there are a number of recruitment consultancies situated north of the A458, close to the the Dudley Canal No.2.
