CBSbutler was formed by the merger in 2003 of two long-standing recruitment firms, namely Butler International (UK) and CBS Appointments. The two organisations can claim to have in excess of 50 years combined recruiting experience for technical and engineering jobs, UK and overseas.


Today CBSbutler is recognised as a leading player within the engineering, technology and defence industries with an enviable client base comprising FTSE 100 PSLs and Master Vendor agreements.


CBSbutler’s reputation for delivering a specialist service has become an industry trademark. The business model is based around dedicated recruitment practices that are focused in specific technical and engineering jobs. This expert approach ensures an in depth understanding of our clients’ requirements together with swift and accurate matching of ‘best-fit’ candidates.


Furthermore, the complete spectrum of engineering jobs are catered for; from graduates/juniors through to senior management, and encompassing blue/white-collar and professional grades. Truly a ‘one-stop-shop’ approach to meeting our client’s varied recruitment needs.


CBSbutler has a comprehensive infrastructure comprising sophisticated databases, powerful candidate search and web-based interrogation tools. In addition, a robust Quality Management System (BS EN ISO9002) combined with service level agreements, ensures that our service delivery processes meet exacting performance standards. All our staff are trained and developed under the Investor’s in People framework, and their performance monitored through best practice appraisal and management-by-objective schemes.


A strong value-added philosophy exists that sets us apart from our competitors.
