A Yorkshire-based recruitment firm that specialises in tech and digital roles has further expanded its team.
Dom Johnson has joined the company to work within its network, infrastructure and support team, alongside experienced administrator and customer service expert Stevie Woodrup – quadrupling its headcount since moving to its new headquarters at Kelham Island’s Neepsend Business Centre last year.
Affecto MD and founder, Daniel Koseoglu, said: “We focus solely on the tech industry, and in doing so have amassed an unrivalled understanding of what our clients – from both an employer and an employee perspective within the sector – want and need.
“These latest appointments further bolster our capacity to deliver against such briefs, with further expansion planned over the summer to meet the increasing demand for highly-skilled individuals from a growing number of companies.”
