Pertemps Limited

Pertemps Limited is a prominent UK recruitment agency, focusing on temporary and permanent placements across diverse industries including finance, engineering, and public services. Founded in 1961 by Jenny McLoughlin-Settle, Pertemps Limited is based in Meriden, UK, and specializes in recruitment services. The company was acquired by LDC in February 2012, reflecting a strategic pivot in its operational management. Steve West currently serves as CEO, guiding the company through its various stages of growth and development.

Pertemps offers a comprehensive range of recruitment services, catering to both temporary and permanent staffing needs across numerous sectors such as accountancy, health and safety, IT, and education. The firm effectively addresses the employment requisites of over 6,000 clients, which include large corporations and small enterprises. Its services support employers in finding qualified candidates while assisting job seekers in landing positions that align with their skills. Pertemps operates mainly in the UK, with a strong presence in key regions, including London, Birmingham, Manchester, and the South East.

In the fiscal year 2024, Pertemps achieved a revenue of USD 13. 60 mn and an EBITDA of USD 12. 20 mn. Revenue generation is primarily through fee-based transactions for candidate placements, alongside ongoing contracts for temporary workforce management, enhancing its service offerings.

Looking ahead, Pertemps is focused on expanding its footprint in both existing and new markets, aiming for geographical growth within the UK and potentially exploring international opportunities. Recent funding from the 2012 acquisition will support these initiatives, particularly in the development of new recruitment technologies and innovative service offerings. The company intends to leverage its expertise to introduce new products designed to enhance the job placement process and improve client engagement.
