Paul Furlong

Specialising In

I specialise in recruiting across CNC Machining, Design Engineering, and Metrology, supporting engineering and manufacturing businesses with the precision‑driven talent they rely on. Alongside my technical focus, I also manage several key accounts, ensuring our clients receive consistent service, strategic support, and a deep understanding of their workforce needs. My approach combines hands‑on technical knowledge with strong relationship management to deliver dependable, long‑term recruitment solutions.

Experience & Background

After 15 years in retail and account management, I transitioned into technical recruitment, a move that allowed me to combine my commercial leadership experience with my interest in engineering. Since then, I’ve mentored teams, overseen large‑scale recruitment projects, and played a key role in building strong partnerships across the technical and engineering sectors.

My journey at Omega has seen me progress into the role of Principal Consultant and Senior Account Manager, where I now lead on complex technical hires while supporting some of our most valued clients. I take pride in understanding the fine details of each discipline — whether sourcing highly skilled CNC Machinists, experienced Design Engineers, or specialist Metrology professionals and ensuring every placement aligns with both capability and culture.

What drives me is simple: helping businesses secure talent that improves performance, strengthens capability, and supports long‑term operational success.

You Might Be Surprised to Learn

I’m currently immersed in the renovation of my Cotswold cottage — a labour of love that tests my patience and DIY skills in equal measure. I also love exploring the surrounding countryside on long walks… and I’m definitely partial to a slice of cake.
