Specialist rail and engineering recruiter Exxell has opened a new branch in Southampton.

The branch is in Upper Market Street in Eastleigh near Southampton. New recruit Richard Parker will work alongside rail safety critical manager Richard Anderson, providing staffing solutions across signaling, permanent-way, rolling stock, OHLE, construction, mechanical and electrical engineering disciplines.

Exxell director Nigel Rees says: “Moving to Southampton is an operational decision. It gives the company more scope to expand in the future and has allowed us to recruit an additional member of staff.”
