The Challenge
Lincolnshire Herbs is one of the UK’s largest growers and suppliers of fresh cut and potted herbs, serving retail, food service, wholesale markets and manufacturing. With a strong reputation for quality, consistency and high standards, the business operates at scale while placing great emphasis on building strong teams, efficient operations and a positive workplace culture. MorePeople has supported Lincolnshire Herbs since 2011 across a variety of roles, including their first Technical Manager appointment in December 2019, where our industry knowledge and understanding of the business helped us identify the right candidate.
Our Approach
MorePeople have developed a strong relationship with Lincolnshire Herbs over several recruitment assignments, including a visit to their site in Bourne to better understand the products, operations and company culture. With over 25 years of experience in horticulture and fresh produce recruitment, we’ve been able to quickly identify and connect with strong candidates. Our approaches led to robust shortlists, with multiple candidates progressing to second-stage interviews and ultimately resulting in successful placements. Throughout the process, we maintain close communication to ensure both client and candidate feel fully supported.
"I was really impressed with the communication that was maintained with MorePeople throughout the whole process. Luan Harrison was in regular contact to keep me informed with open and honest feedback about how the candidate search was progressing. In terms of the calibre of candidates that were put forward for the role, I felt that Luan fully understood what we were looking for, hence why we ended up interviewing them all! Having also engaged the services of another recruiter to help fill this role, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend MorePeople as, in our experience, nobody else delivers as well. They are our ‘go to’ recruiter."

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Kieran on several recruitment assignments and have always found him to be highly professional and supportive. He takes the time to follow up on candidates, provides clear and constructive feedback, and stays in touch throughout the recruitment process and beyond to ensure everything is going smoothly. His proactive approach and genuine commitment make him a valuable recruitment partner.”
