Cordant Recruitment has launched two new specialist consultancies, Cordant Dynamic (IT, Microsoft Dynamics and the Microsoft stack of business services) and Cordant Procurement.
Both consultancies come under the umbrella of Cordant’s new professional services division, led by managing director, Sid Barnes, who has just joined from Adecco.
New managing directors have been brought in to head up the operations. Managing director of Cordant Dynamic, Edward Bell joined the firm in June 2014, having previously led a number of specialist IT talent resourcing companies.
Meanwhile, Joanne Till, MD of Cordant Procurement, joined in November 2014 from a 14-year career at Hays, where she was most recently a regional director and previously one of the founders of Hays’ procurement and supply team.
Cordant Dynamic is based in Manchester and offers consultancy, M&A advice and recruitment for mid to high level technology professionals. It already has more than 13 staff in its head office, with plans to grow this to 50.
This year, it has expansion plans with proposed office openings in Newcastle upon Tyne, London, Warsaw and Dublin, creating another 50 jobs.
Cordant Procurement is based just outside London, but plans to open further offices in Birmingham and Manchester this year. It currently has a team of six, made up of recruitment specialists, who are also experts in key industries, and procurement professionals.
All have been hired especially for the new consultancy and Cordant aims to grow this number to 15. It is already recruiting for private and public sector organisations both in the UK and internationally, having just won a major contract with a large financial services provider in Abu Dhabi. It will be working on recruiting both permanent and interim staff.
