Funky Chunky Furniture Ltd have grown their team by over 60% in the last two months, and they’re still recruiting for more team members to join us.
The consumer shift to online retail and significant growth in the home improvement and DIY retail market, has meant that they’ve been able to recruit 15 new team members across the workshop, warehousing, dispatch and the office teams.
Kevin Johnston, Managing Director, said: “It’s been an incredible year. Initially May 2020 was our biggest month of sales to date, then as each subsequent month went by that broke the previous record. Even the most optimistic of our forecasting has been outstripped by consumer demand for our products.
“It’s a fantastic situation to be in, but it’s not without its challenges. We’re working hard to make sure we grow our team in a sustainable way, ensuring we recruit the right team members to enable us to meet customer demand for our handmade products.”
FCF are still looking to recruit a further six team members in production, assembly and warehousing, a process which is being managed via Indeed.com
