Permanent recruitment for employers in Carrington, from sites around Carrington Business Park and the former Shell site. WSUK hires vetted permanent staff across warehouse, transport, production and management roles — single vacancies and large multi-role campaigns.
WSUK provides permanent recruitment for Carrington employers across logistics, manufacturing, food and aviation — warehouse operatives, FLT and HGV drivers, production staff, supervisors, transport planners and managers — for single vacancies or volume campaigns. For sites around Carrington Business Park and the former Shell site, reached via A6144 to M60 (J8), we deliver vetted, referenced shortlists of permanent staff who fit and stay.
Carrington is one of Greater Manchester's biggest industrial regeneration areas. From 1947 the reclaimed peat of Carrington Moss was developed into the Shell petrochemical site, which produced polythene and polystyrene until its closure in 2007, and LyondellBasell still runs a chemical plant there. The combined-cycle Carrington Power Station, completed in 2016, can generate up to 880 MW. Carrington Business Park and the surrounding industrial land now house warehousing, manufacturing, waste and recycling and energy businesses, and the wider New Carrington allocation plans around 750,000 square metres of employment floorspace alongside new housing. The A6144 is the main route in, connecting to M60 junction 8 via Sale and west to Partington, where Saica runs a paper recycling plant beside the Manchester Ship Canal. Road access has historically been limited by the canal and the chemical works.
Labour demand at Carrington follows plant shutdowns and maintenance cycles at the chemical and energy sites, and new build-outs as the New Carrington development brings extra warehouse and industrial space into use. That is why retention and cultural fit matter as much as headcount. WSUK recruits the whole operation permanently — warehouse operatives, FLT and HGV drivers, production staff, team leaders, transport planners and warehouse and operations managers. We screen, reference and right-to-work-check every candidate before they reach a shortlist, for single strategic vacancies and high-volume campaigns alike.
