Yorkshire Payments boosts workforce ‘at every level’ with latest recruitment drive

Yorkshire Payments, the Brighouse-based card payment solutions provider, has created seven new jobs within the space of a month after collaborating with Cornerstone Recruitment.

The two companies worked together to recruit new members of staff as part of Yorkshire Payments’ team expansion plans.

New recruits include Sarah Ward and Dan Andrews in customer service roles, Teresa Whyte as company sales manager and Lisa Regan as finance manager.

James Howard, Yorkshire Payments managing director, said: “As a business, we are passionate about supporting the local economy, but finding the right people can sometimes be a challenge.

“We are very keen to expand our team with individuals who are proactive, service driven and live locally to the area. Cornerstone Recruitment invested a lot of time in meeting potential candidates and finding out whether they were a good fit culturally for our team before introducing them to us.”

Dru Widdowson, managing director of Cornerstone Recruitment, commented: “Good people are the heart of any successful business and this is something James recognises.

“The challenge for many business owners is having the time to vet candidates thoroughly to make sure they are a good match and share the ethos of the company, which is where we come in.”

Cornerstone Recruitment has helped Yorkshire Payments fill roles in accounts, customer services and marketing. New recruits include engineers, a telesales executive and a company sales manager.

James added: “These latest appointments boost our team at every level of the business and thanks to Dru’s support we are confident that our newest employees have the right skills and attitude to help our business achieve its ambitious growth targets for the year ahead.”
