A positive start to 2010....

With the UK being one of three countries responsible for around 50% of European pharmaceutical sales and the UK's medical devices industry achieving an annual growth rate of around 9% - there is lots to be positive about.

Since returning to the offices in the New Year, I think it is fair to say that we have been pleasantly surprised by the amount of opportunities that exist in the market place for both permanent and contract members of staff and the indications for the coming months look very good indeed.

This doesn't necessarily make things easier for recruiters. Though companies may be on the lookout for new personnel, due to lingering financial worries many are still cautious about whom they employ. Whereas previously companies may have taken a chance on a candidate who ticks 4 of the 5 proverbial boxes, they are more likely to hold fire until they find the 'perfect' candidate, particularly for a permanent placement.

Therefore competition for and amongst high calibre candidates is at an all time high.

Fortunately X4 Group thrive in this kind of environment. Our expertise centres round finding candidates to fulfil 'difficult' roles which is why we have gained the trust of many highly recognisable and well renowned businesses, companies and organisations. Put simply, we deliver candidates that other recruiters just can't find.

We foresee a challenging year ahead but we are confident that with the partnerships we currently have in place and our determination to further improve and grow the business throughout the coming months, 2010 is going to be a good year.

If you are looking for a new opportunity in pharmaceuticals, medical devices, engineering or IT - or you need our expertise in helping to find a suitable member of staff to fulfil a role in your organisation, please do not hesitate to contact us.
