Hereford Recruitment Company Recruit 1st celebrate 1st Birthday

HEREFORD, U.K. - Feb. 16, 2018 - PRLog -- We smashed it! Recruit 1st are celebrating a successful 1st year of trading with over 70 recruitment assignments placed and have plans to go from strength to strength in 2018.

"2017 has been a most enjoyable year, and I am thrilled with the success we have seen particularly the Financial and Legal sectors" says Stuart Blake, Managing Director at Recruit 1st. "Whilst 2018 will undoubtedly see economic challenges particularly with Brexit rumbling on, the need for high quality specialist staff will remain as important as ever".

Building the right team and retaining your top talent is critical for success today, and it's why employee retention is essential for long-term growth.  Nearly four out of five (78%) of business leaders rank employee retention rates as important or urgent. With the cost of employee turnover and the benefits of retaining well-trained employees versed in company policies and procedures, making sure new hires don't leave for avoidable reasons is one of leaders' top concerns.

Stuart continues "In 2018 there will be a greater need for employers to review their recruitment and retention strategies, be seen as a local employer of choice and so attract and retain the best local talent.  Building on our success we want Recruit 1st to be the first choice for candidates in specialist areas and to be able to promote outstanding opportunities for these candidates in 2018. Planning ahead with our customers will be critical to enable us to react to industry needs in a timely manner."

Alongside the day to day business Recruit 1St will continue to support the Hereford Face Values Board which promotes Fairness, Acceptance, Community & Equality across Herefordshire.  The company will also be supporting the Downs Syndrome Association charity and Stuart Blake will be embarking on a 45 km walk to raise much needed funds for this fantastic cause.
