Talent Acquisition Partner

Celnor Group is a fast-growing consortium of complementary businesses providing critical data for compliance, safety, and sustainability. As a specialist in Testing, Inspection, Certification, and Compliance (TICC) services, our companies support commercial clients across the UK, delivering essential insights that help businesses meet regulatory requirements and drive sustainable growth.

 

With a range of businesses currently under our ownership and more acquisitions in the pipeline, we are scaling rapidly and investing in the infrastructure, technology, and people to ensure sustainable growth.

 

At Celnor, our people are our strength. We’re building a people-first, high-performance culture, underpinned by our commitment to integrity, collaboration, and innovation.
