Newcastle recruitment agency to create 100 new jobs with Dallas expansion

Newcastle-based Frank Recruitment Group has announced plans to open a new office in Dallas and plans to hire hundreds of new staff.

Opening on the 24th floor of Ross Tower, the business will initially recruit 100 people in the Dallas area.

Founded in 2007, the firm employs a service model that divides its business into six core brands, that are each dedicated to a single product, such as Microsoft Dynamics, Salesforce, NetSuite and AWS.

The opening of the Dallas office builds on a period of significant momentum for Frank Recruitment Group. In April of this year, the FT recognised the company as one of Europe’s fastest growing 1000.

Launching June 5 later this year, the new base will primarily focus on Frank Recruitment brand Nigel Frank International, which specialises in Microsoft technology recruitment.

The team will be headed up by NFI Executive Vice President Paul Briggs and Vice President Paden Simmons.

Paul said: “We’re thrilled to be building an exciting and dynamic team here in Dallas.

“As the global leader in Microsoft recruitment, we are looking forward to training and working with the best local talent and supplying skilled Microsoft Dynamics and Stack professionals to employers both in America and abroad.”

With Texas boasting over half a million workers in its tech sector, the second most in North America, company chiefs at Frank say Dallas was an easy choice to base its expansion.

Simmons added: “Dallas has a huge group of talented, hard-working and highly motivated people.

“Many college graduates and young professionals are starting their careers and moving here and, everywhere you look, businesses are growing or relocating to Texas. It’s a really exciting time to be working in Dallas right now.”

Frank Recruitment Group recently announced it would be opening new offices in Newcastle at the St Nicholas Building near Central Station, and are looking to recruit 150 additional consultants before the end of the year.
