This Newcastle recruitment business is celebrating 100% growth

BMC Recruitment Group has successfully achieved 100 per cent year-on-year growth for the second consecutive year.

David Blair, managing director, now has his sights set on further expansion in 2018.

BMC’s model is based upon delivering transparent, highly process driven search services - initial success came in the executive search and senior finance markets, where BMC were able to utilise David Blair’s expertise and network gained during a career in accountancy and corporate finance.

In 2017, BMC strengthened its offering to include Technology, Engineering, Sales and Marketing and Operations and Supply Chain as well as a full range of finance roles.

Managing director, David Blair, said: “In the early days, there were two of us, no clients and very few candidates. We now have a team of 16 made up of experienced consultants, former industry specialists who bring deep sector knowledge, and a very effective research team.

“It was always my intention to surround myself with talented consultants who are passionate about recruitment and hungry for success, however, the strength of the team is far beyond what I envisaged when we set out and I consider it to be BMC’s greatest achievement.”

This expansion was supported by the extensive expertise of BMC’s associate director David Lovenbury who utilised his experience in high growth recruitment environments to help scale BMC across multiple sectors.

David added: “When I started the business, my aim was to build a solid platform here in the North East.

“My time as a chartered accountant and the wider network of our consultants has meant that this growth and national rollout has happened earlier than expected and we’ve supported clients across the North West, Midlands and in London and the South East.”

BMC is working with major clients including seven of the North East’s eight largest businesses, and has also secured two international projects, highlighting BMC’s growth in over two years.

BMC has seen a high demand for its services across the businesses’ key sectors and with some of the North East’s largest businesses as clients such as Nissan, Sage and Bellway.

Commenting on the success of BMC Recruitment Group, BMC’s associate director, David Lovenbury, added: “Joining BMC in 2015, I could see the huge potential and impressive scale of what was about to be achieved.

“Having worked in the recruitment sector for over 25 years I was massively excited about the prospect at being part of BMC. “This growth has demonstrated the value that we provide to our clients, our approach to business has allowed us to scale quickly, and transition into a wide range of recruitment disciplines.

“As we enter the second quarter of 2018, we have every confidence that the goals we have set for the business will be met, and that we can deliver on growth targets whilst fully supporting clients with high-quality recruitment solutions.”
