Jobpartners increases its manpower to support strong business growth in the UK and US

New recruits illustrate Jobpartnersí continued success and general growth of the PRM market

Jobpartners, the European leader of software solutions dedicated to the PRM (People Relationship Management) market, today announced that it has recruited many new employees to support the companyís rapid growth in the UK and the US. The new employees have been hired following an ambitious recruitment campaign to fill a variety of positions including sales executives, pre-sale consultants, project consultants, developers, support consultants and marketing functions. They join Jobpartners after a very successful year during which the UK and US surpassed its objectives through new customer wins such as Hewitt and Xerox in the UK, and Ericsson Services Ltd in the US.

The recruitment campaign includes the hiring of three key, high-level people who have been hired to drive business growth in the UK and US. David Blume joins Jobpartners as vice president of operations for the UK and US. Also joining Jobpartners are Julien Tyler as sales executive and Duncan Campbell as senior consultant. All three new employees bring their extensive knowledge of the HR industry to the company and will be dedicated to business development.

ìAccording to The Economistís CEO Briefing in January 2006, better recruitment, development and management of employees are among the top five operational priorities for CEOs in the next three years[1],î commented David Blume, vice president operations UK and US at Jobpartners. ìOur experience of the market suports these findings and we expect to see the demand for people relationship management solutions continue to develop at a rapid pace, which makes it a very exciting time to be joining Jobpartners.î

With over 15 years of international sales and operational management experience gained in the enterprise software solutions space, David Blume is a valuable addition to the Jobpartners team. Blume is responsible for sales and service delivery to Jobpartnersí customers in the UK and the growing US market. He joins with a solid background in HR applications.

ìWhile the UK remains our core focus, many of our European customers have US interests and so developing the US side of our business is a natural progression from the success we are seeing in the UK, î continued David Blume.

This recent recruitment drive illustrates the success of Jobpartners, which has achieved sustained high and continuous growth since its creation in 2000. Jobpartners has been recognised on many occasions as the market leader in people relationship management, particularly by analysts groups such as IDC.
