Marketing and recruitment firm to double headcount in city centre move

Birmingham-based IT and marketing recruitment specialist ESA Group is set to move into the Colmore Building as it outlines ambitious plans to double its headcount in 2019.

The company, which was founded in 2014 and works with the likes of Purplebricks, The Co-Op and the NEC Group, has announced a deal to occupy one of Orega’s largest available office spaces.

Orega operates 28,000 sq ft of serviced offices at The Colmore Building.

The deal will see the firm move from its current Edgbaston location and in a move driven by the management’s plans to double its workforce to 25 consultants in 2019, and grow to over 55 in 2020.

ESA Group managing director Dan Heathcote said: “Our decision to move to the Colmore Business District is driven by our ambition to become the UK’s leader in tech and marketing recruitment.

“We’re now on the hunt for passionate and driven individuals who want to play an integral role in being a part of our growing business.”

Co-director Andrew Stocks added: “This is a crucial year for ESA Group, those looking to join at this instrumental time in our journey have the opportunity to steer the firm’s continued growth.”
