Recruitment firm expands with opening of new Solihull office

A West Midland recruitment company has created 12 jobs of its own with the opening of a new office in Solihull town centre.

Workforce Recruitment, which serves the professional services sector – including sales, administration, accounts and customer services, has taken a 1,260 sq ft unit in Highlands House, Highlands Road.

The new office, the company’s eighth location in the region, covers the areas of Solihull, south Birmingham, Coventry and Warwickshire, and is part of the group’s ongoing expansion.

Tina White, director, said: “Solihull is a key location for our expanding business thanks to its central location, convenient links to the motorway, and connections to the rest of the region.”

Paul Alekna, co-founder and CEO of Workforce Group, said: “The opening of the Solihull branch is another great milestone for us, especially at a time when the spotlight is on the region’s economic growth prospects.

“We are growing to meet the thriving demand across the south Birmingham jobs market, ensuring that the new jobs being created, especially in the private sector, are filled by highly skilled people who companies want to get onboard fast.”

Workforce employs more than 100 people across the region, with offices in Redditch, Worcester, Kidderminster, Rugby, Northampton, Coventry and at Stoneleigh Park in Warwickshire.

The firm is also set to open new branches in Birmingham and Dudley in the coming months.
