There is lots of seasonal work with SAP Landscapes while Keelings has seen employee numbers increase from 1,666 to 1,993 since 2012 writes Mary Phelan.
SAP Landscapes took on 50 seasonal workers from March to October, and also took on a HR manager this year. SAP Landscapes also hopes to fill 60 seasonal roles in 2017, depending on demand. The company will begin recruiting to fill those roles in January. A small number of seasonal workers who impress will be kept on.
