FOLLOWING DEMAND FOR specialist in-house timber frame professional services, award-winning UK Timber Frame Construction firm - Benfield ATT "is initiating a major recruitment effort to strengthen its Technical & Professional Services Department. The major recruitment drive at the firmâ's South East Wales head office is to facilitate the "biggest period of growth in the company's history".


Although the number of timber frame jobs created is yet unknown, the company is beginning its search for Architectural Technicians, CAD Designers and specialist Timber Frame Technical Support, as well as Technical Sales personnel with an understanding of timber and environmental concerns. Benfield ATT has a strong reputation in sustainable Timber Engineering Systems, and is looking to expand it with people who have a passion for timber frame and a desire for a challenge.


The company places emphasis on people, quality and “right first time� - making its Head Office and Manufacturing Unit one of the leading teams in the industry.


Qualifications for the positions vary depending on experience and attitude. Whilst the company has progressive training and development programmes, all applicants are expected to have at least a basic knowledge of Timber Frame construction and the ability to read and work with CAD drawings, as well as excellent written and verbal communication skills to add to the already highly-developed team.


This recruitment drive is aimed at attracting the best talent in the industry to further strengthen the firm's in-house Technical & Professional Services Department. MD Professor Michael Benfield comments "We are going through the biggest period of growth in the company's history and this consequently means that we need to offer extra support to our repeat clients and our in-house teams. We are dedicated to quality and must continue to meet our clients expectations as we grow".


HR Manager Veronica Clarke said "Benfield ATT are recruiting at both local and national levels and have a lot to offer timber frame professionals who are either experienced or new to the industry and who wish to develop their career at a time when our business is getting extremely exciting. The feedback we're getting at the moment is positive, with people joining us to help them really '"make a difference", which is what these new roles are all about".


This announcement follows the firms latest Award – the 2005 Impact Upon Society "˜Big Tick" Award from Business in the Community. They continue to be the only receivers of the Award in Wales. In 2004 Benfield ATT was named as the "Best Performing Company in South Wales" by the Welsh Development Agency, and are also one of the few qualified Investors in People in the timber frame sector.


Described as an "example of a thriving Welsh company" by Janet Reed OBE, Board Member of Business in the Community, Benfield ATT is gaining bespoke timber frame design and manufacture contracts based on its environmental and community ethics, quality and knowledgeable and friendly service.
