Cotterill Business Supplies Feel the Business Impact of Great Apprentices
Yorkshire based business supplies and stationery retailer Cotterill Business Supplies has increased its telesales and marketing team with an apprenticeship recruitment programme, working with Business Impact, the UK’s leading provider of results focused training and apprenticeship recruitment and development.
Cotterill Business Supplies, founded in 1971, is a family run business which is part of a group of dealers who have a combined turnover totalling more than 320 million pounds. It was the results focused approach of Business Impact which first brought the companies together, and the approach taken by Business Impact to offer a free recruitment service to the highest standard which made all the difference for Cotterill. Any new position is a challenge to fill, often when there is a wide range of potential candidates. The skill is in narrowing down the candidates and finding suitably qualified young people, who will share the values ethos and personality of the business.
Diana Cotterill, Head of Marketing and HR at Cotterill Business Supplies commented: ‘Business Impact were able to take on our challenge quickly and proactively. Finding young people of the right calibre, personality and with the skills to take on direct marketing and telesales is a real challenge. The recruitment service and on-going support from Business Impact has been invaluable, and we are extending our use of their services to find a marketing/design apprentice.’
Nick Atkinson, national sales manager at Business Impact commented: ‘It was a great brief from Cotterill Business Supplies and because we operate nationally, we understand that the candidates we needed, had to be able to work in a fast moving and service driven environment. Our dedicated team helped successfully recruit the apprentices locally, and we look forward to delivering all apprenticeships within the business in the years to come. We believe that apprenticeship recruitment, training and development is a real partnership, and working with local businesses across the country with a national perspective is one of our great strengths.’

Telesales and direct marketing apprentices are just two of the many different business, trade and industrial apprenticeships which can be attained through Business Impact.
