Channel recruitment company Robertson Sumner is building another division after receiving multiple enquiries about technical roles.
CEO Marc Sumner says it would be “silly” for the company not to invest in the area with there being “shortages” in the market.
“No one can get enough technical talent into their business, so everyone is looking. We’ve had a phenomenal year in terms of growth and numbers, and with our recent office expansion we were looking at ways we can help our customers even more into 2023 and beyond.
“We have ‘dabbled’ with the odd technical role in the past, but we normally say no. But with the sheer number of enquiries it seem silly not to invest in this area.”
Mark Reddy will run the division and help technology businesses with their technical hires. Reddy joined the company in 2016 and bring on new and experienced recruiters.
Reddy said: “Building a technical division is the natural evolution for the business to meet the demand from our clients. I want to scale this quickly, however, it won’t be to the detriment to any of our customers; delivering the best service and the best talent is the ultimate priority.”
Robertson Sumner plans to offer these services to its existing client base first and then roll out to new clients throughout Europe as the team builds.
