A BRADFORD based recruitment business has been recognised as one of Europe’s fastest growing businesses by the Financial Times.

Specialist People Services, based at Kings Gate, is included in the FT1000, a list of Europe’s 1,000 fastest-growing companies based on revenue growth between 2012 and 2015.

SPS recorded group revenues of £129.4m for the year ending March 2016, and all areas of the business experienced growth.

Chris Chidley, chief executive, said: “In a climate where European economies are seeing flat growth, we’ve been able to buck this trend and grow our business by diversifying the group to provide business critical services to customers across the UK and Australia.

“By offering added-value products, such as people management and training services we are meeting client needs beyond just labour requirements.”
