Welcome to the blogging world of Stafforce

Over the last year Stafforce has been taking its first baby steps forward in the world of social media; we started with LinkedIn, then it was on to Twitter where @StafforceNews is tweeting our latest news to an ever-growing number of followers and now here we are, in the new territory of blogging and indeed, our first blog post!

So what might you expect to read about on our blog in 2012? Well there is always plenty  going on at Stafforce and we are more than your traditional recruiter. Today we’re working with clients to improve their profitability through people, processes and technology. We’re offering the employers and candidates that we work with something extra at every stage of their journey with us and our blog will tell you a little about how we’re doing this, share some of our success stories and open up discussion around issues that are affecting industry.

If you’ve never heard of Stafforce before, well the foundations were laid over 30 years ago in South Yorkshire and the story has unfolded since then. We’re national, we’re growing and the Stafforce story is exciting. Stafforce is a great recruiter with a strong track record of working in a number of specialist sectors, including food manufacturing, industrial, ports, retail, engineering and construction. Our clients are UK wide and range from well-known national brand names to local SME businesses. As part of our growth plans we’ve acquired Relay Recruitment and TEK Personnel Consultants over the past 12 months, to strengthen our foothold in the recruitment industry. We’ve also acquired Action 4 Business and CenFRA (Centre for Robotics and Automation) – two consultancy businesses which are helping us to work in partnership with our clients to innovate and improve their bottom line.

We hope that you’re going to find what we’ve got to say on the Stafforce blog interesting and worthy of a good read.
