People Experts sets up Manchester base

OUTSOURCED recruitment company People Experts has opened a sales office in Manchester, a move that will create 10 jobs.

The directors of the company, based in Worcester, were keen to open a new base in the north.  They chose Manchester after receiving support from the city’s inward investment agency, MIDAS.

The new office at Piccadilly currently employs three people and will eventually employ 10.  

People Experts co-founder and director Tom Leavesley said: “Manchester is a great city and we have many clients in the North West, so it made sense for us to open our second office here”.

People Experts’ services including online recruitment advertising, candidate assessment, pre-employment screening and recruitment administration.  These services are all delivered on a fully outsourced model or per-project basis.   

Mr Leavesley added, “With so many high-growth, entrepreneurial and inspirational companies who fit into our target client list we couldn’t think of a better location to base our sales team.”

Tim Newns, chief executive of MIDAS, said: “People Experts is a welcome addition to the network of successful recruitment operations based in Greater Manchester.

“They share our aspirations to attract and retain talent in the region and are equally passionate about developing the skills base.  We’re delighted they have chosen Manchester to begin expanding their operations in the UK.”
