Great minds think alike

Penna plc is the First to Select Recruitmaxís New Staffing Edition in the UK

Recruitmaxís Staffing Edition (SE), part of its recruiting and applicant tracking product portfolio, has been selected by Penna plc to replace its existing recruitment management system. Penna, specialists in human capital management, has selected SE as the tool that will enable it to grow its business and execute its plan to create an exceptional experience for both its clients and candidates. The hosted ASP format gives Penna a true web presence that it didnít have previously.



Recruitmax, a world leader in technology and services for building great workforces, is to tailor SE to meet Pennaís specific needs. The superior search functionality of SE will enable Penna to create one central database, accessible by its network of European offices via the internet, from which it can service both its interim and executive search businesses.

Commenting on the contract, Mark Smith, director of resourcing for Penna said, On starting our research into the marketplace, it was apparent that most providersí solutions were old ideas redressed for the web. The initial discussion with Recruitmax, therefore, was stimulating by comparison, as it quickly became apparent we had a meeting of minds. Staffing Edition utilises modern technology and is significantly further advanced, compared to that of its competitors in the UK. It is designed for the web, with new and innovative ideas. Smith added, We see Recruitmax as a partner, more than a supplier, who shares our vision - that itís people that change performance.

Darren Jaffrey, U.K. general manager, Recruitmax, added, We are delighted that our technology and delivery capability has been recognised by a company of Pennaís standing. Itís exciting to be working with Penna at such an important phase in its development and we look forward to playing our part in helping it achieve its goals.
