Colleague Customers Take Second And Third Spots In The Boxington Compiled Fast 50

First Point Group and Whitehall Resources Show Staggering Growth in 2010

Two of the three companies at the top of the Boxington compiled Fast 50 league table published recently use Colleague recruitment software to manage their front and back office business processes.

The Fast 50, produced in association with Boxington Corporate Finance, was recently published by Recruiter magazine and analyses the performances of the fastest growing staffing companies in the UK.

First Point Group, recruiters for the Telecoms sector, have achieved compound annual growth in revenue of over 120% and appear in second place on the league table of the 50 fastest growing private, independent and unquoted recruitment businesses in the UK. First Point have used Colleague recruitment software since forming in April 2004.

Specialist SAP recruiter, Whitehall Resources, have achieved compound annual growth in revenue of over 72% and are third in Boxington’s study. Whitehall Resources was formed in May 2007 and have used Colleague software form the very start.

Tremayne Hall, founder and Managing Director of Whitehall Resources, said: ‘I have an excellent team at Whitehall. By investing in great people and giving them the very best tools for the job we’ve grown rapidly and the future looks just as bright. Determination to provide first class service combined with shear hard work means we have flourished where others have struggled. A contributing factor to our success is the technology we employ to ensure our business runs smoothly and efficiently. Colleague software quietly takes care of our data handling and allows us to concentrate on doing what we do best. It’s a great partnership.”

Will Minns, Managing Director of Colleague, said: “I’m delighted to see the success of Whitehall Resources and First Point Group and it’s great knowing that both companies are using Colleague recruitment software to manage their front and back office business processes. It’s testament to their drive, professionalism and their devotion to delivering great service that these companies have taken two out of the top three spots in the Recruiter Fast 50 this year and I wish them continuing success for 2011. I would love to see Colleague customers taking first, second and third places next year but for now, as Meatloaf says, ‘two outa three ain’t bad’.
