Managing director Glen Halliwell, who harbours international ambitions, said: “Since our launch, we have had the privilege of partnering with some of Hull’s best-known companies. I am confident that we are the only specialist recruiter in the region utilising the AI software we have, giving us an edge over our competition.
“We have had a real surge in demand recently and need to grow to keep up with our clients. By doubling the team in the next 12 months, I am confident we can do this whilst breaking into new areas. The long-term plan is to have multiple 海角视频 locations and international operations in central Europe and America. Watch this space!”

“Glen and his team have responded to these demanding times by leveraging their own unrivalled knowledge and experience in this market and combining it with some remarkable AI systems. We are frequently receiving positive and congratulatory comments from our members and partners about their approach to tech recruitment problems.
“We have worked together with the Principal IT team to develop some unique offerings for tech businesses and tech staff that enable an entirely novel way of looking at solutions to recruitment demands. Every business is digital - most of them just don’t realise it yet - and therefore it is important to engage with the best digital people in the industry. Principal IT is a rapidly growing business that we are proud to be associated with.”
