About this company
Formed in 1982 and originally known as Welding International, our company started out as a key supplier of staff to the Engineering Industry across the North of Britain. Originally under the command of Harry Dutton, an Engineering professional who spotted an opportunity in the market to supply high quality staff to the industry on a contract basis, the brand quickly grew, with offices opening across the country in quick succession. Within the first decade the brand cemented its position in the market and supported many major national Engineering concerns and earned an enviable reputation for being able to support and assist its Clients through value and quality. Building on the reputation of Welding International, the company soon branched out into other sectors and was renamed Dutton International Ltd accordingly. Over the next 20 years the brand was strengthened by the introduction of the best in-house training and development strategies for its staff and the recruitment of the industry’s leading and highest achieving Consultants.
