The UK’s largest recruitment consultancy Adecco Group has announced plans to recruit 160 consultants over the rest of this year.
The positions will be created in Adecco’s professional staffing arm Badenoch & Clark, and in Modis, Computer People and Spring Technology, its dedicated IT recruitment businesses.
The company said the recruitment drive will increase consultant numbers in line with plans to grow the number of temporary and permanent professional hires in 2014. Increased confidence in the professional services and IT recruitment sectors has inspired the company to grow its own consultant numbers.
Adecco Group CEO Peter Searle said: “While some employers continue to remain cautious about the prospects for the UK economy we are certainly seeing an uplift in recruitment activity across the professional services sector and our own recruitment drive aims to deliver against our clients’ expectations for access to quality, experienced talent.”
“Our people are the lifeblood of our business and if we are to continue to maintain our pre-eminent position in the UK recruitment market, we need to ensure that we have the necessary resources to meet client demand.”
