G2 expansion plans in Bristol

Bristol-based IT recruitment specialists G2 are looking to expand their team with eight new consultants after massive success in its first two years.

The Queen Square operation, which now has 13 employees, is on course to return profits of 1.8 million on a turnover of 7 million as it comes to the end of its second full year. This is a 180% increase in turnover from its first full year, which saw the company turnover 2.5 million with profits approaching 700,000

As the market across the UK for both contract and permanent IT staff continues to improve, G2 Recruitment Solutions is looking to add to its sales force in order to cope with the increased demand and its own expansion plans.

Directors James Gorfin, Simon Gillings and Paul King formed G2 in early 2004 and they are on course to be named as one of the fastest growing businesses in the UK.

They have been heavily investing in advertising, infrastructure and in the marketing of services for both clients and candidates ñ this has greatly contributed to their success in the second year.

James Gorfin said: ìNow we are looking for eight more people to join us and be part of the success story. We donít necessarily want people with recruitment or IT backgrounds ñ our training and development programme caters for this. Our experience shows that the people who do well in recruitment are lifeís achievers, people who are motivated, driven and hungry for success.

ìIT Recruitment is a fiercely competitive industry, our consultants suffer knock-backs every day. With the backing, support and enthusiasm of the business behind them, and with some great rewards and incentives on offer, it is easy for our team to dust themselves off and focus on the next business opportunity.î

Using a professional and consultative approach G2 has recruited candidates for a range of FTSE 100 companies and SMEs. Their impressive portfolio has no one client representing more than four per cent of its business.
