About Links Partners
Built on relationships. Backed by experience.
Links Partners is a specialist boutique talent partner supporting manufacturing and engineering businesses across the US.
Founded and run by Jack and his mother, Tracie, Links Partners brings together a modern, relationship-led approach to recruitment with more than three decades of industry experience.
Jack and Tracie have worked alongside each other in recruitment for the past six years, with Tracie's career in the industry spanning over 30 years. That combination of experience, market knowledge and a shared way of working has shaped Links Partners into the business it is today.
Small by design. Connected by nature.
As a boutique agency, our clients work directly with the people delivering their search. There are no unnecessary layers, handovers or high-volume approach.
Instead, we take the time to understand how each business actually operates.
We've partnered with large manufacturing organisations and growing businesses alike, supporting hiring across Engineering, Production & Operations, Executive Leadership and specialist technical functions.
This experience has given us an understanding of the challenges manufacturers face beyond simply filling vacancies — from skills shortages and succession planning to expansion, operational improvement and building leadership capability.
Our Approach
From supplier to partner.
We don't believe great recruitment starts with a job description, it starts with a conversation.
We want to understand the operation, the people already within it, the challenges you're facing and what you're trying to achieve.
That allows us to look beyond qualifications and keywords to understand the type of person who will genuinely add value to your business.
Our approach is built around:
Understanding your operation
We take the time to understand your processes, culture, challenges and long-term objectives before going to market.
Building genuine market knowledge
We stay closely connected to the manufacturing and engineering talent market, giving our clients access to professionals who aren't always actively applying for roles.
Quality over volume
Our aim isn't to send the most resumes. It's to introduce the right people, with clear reasoning behind every recommendation.
Thinking beyond today's vacancy
Where possible, we work with clients ahead of the hiring need, supporting workforce planning, succession, market intelligence and future talent requirements.
Staying involved
From the initial brief through interviews, offer management and onboarding, we remain closely involved with both client and candidate.
Because ultimately, our job isn't simply to make introductions. It's to create the right connections between people, businesses and opportunities.
Lets Build What’s Next
Whether you're making a critical hire, planning for future growth or simply want a better understanding of the talent available within your market, we'd be happy to start the conversation.
