Sales manager Jake is new recruit

A Shropshire recruitment firm has welcomed a new face to its expanding team.

Sales manager Jake Cintra, 32, has joined C2 Recruitment in Shrewsbury and will be working with both local and national companies.

Managing director Shane Hawkins said Mr Cintra was the third new member of staff the blossoming company had taken on after two years of successful trading.

He added: "Jake is an experienced sales manager. His last position was as the general manager of a local media company where he enjoyed much success.

"He was highly regarded and we are very excited about having him on board.

"Jake will be working both with local and national companies focusing on existing and indeed new accounts. These will include general management within retail, sales, marketing and finance."

Keen footballer and cricketer Mr Cintra has already started in his new role and said he was looking forward to building on the success of the company.

He said: "Recruitment is hugely important with the economy and jobs market in its current state.

"The way C2 Recruitment puts such an emphasis on looking after the interests of their candidates as well as their clients has really impressed me. I'm delighted to join the team and can't wait to use my own experience to keep pushing C2 forward."
