Recruiter Hot 100

01 Dec 2015

First Recruitment Group features in two of Recruiter magazines lists for top recruitment companies in the UK.

The November 2013 issue of Recruiter features the annual HOT 100 survey of the 100 UK recruitment companies who have balanced their people costs with productivity and delivered the most efficient performances in terms of net fee income. First Recruitment Group, having experienced massive growth and an annual turnover of over £100 million last year, made it on the list.

First Recruitment Group also made it onto the Fast 50 list. This is the annual ranking of the fastest-growing private recruitment businesses in the UK. The ranking is based on compound annual sales growth as measured over the companies’ most recent three-year financial period.

CEO of First Recruitment Group, John Urpi, commented,

“I am delighted that we have made it onto both lists for another consecutive year. I think it shows just how hard our team has worked and how well they maintain that effort year after year.”
