Description

Recruitment firm, Harvey Nash, is to hire 100 people over the next two years. The company specialise in recruiting for IT companies. Forty of the new positions will be in areas of recruitment and support services. The Harvey Nash expansion follows what the company says is increased demand for recruitment in the life science, technology and finance sectors, and a lack of suitable candidates to fill such positions due to the increased number of tech start-ups. The company aims to help companies attract and retain talented individuals from across the globe.
