LONDON (Alliance News) - Recruitment company Staffline Group PLC said Thursday trading in the first four months of 2018 was in "line with market expectations" despite a "tight labour market".
In his annual general meeting statement, the company's Chief Executive Officer Chris Pullen said the recruitment division performed strongly.
The company said its three new acquisitions of M&B Staff Services, Endeavour Group Ltd and its subsidiary Vital Recruitment Ltd, helped increasing coverage in specific geographic areas.
"During the first four months of the year, the customer experience strategy has been rolled out giving unrivalled levels of insight into workers experiences on a site by site basis," Pullen said, adding that the transition away form the Work Being services division, in the company's skills, employability and well-being division PeoplePlus, remained on track.
Staffline shares were trading at 977.00 pence, up 0.7%.
