Financial recruitment firm creates 10 jobs at Leeds and Sheffield offices

Sharp Consultancy, which specialises in financial and HR recruitment, is to create 10 new jobs at its offices in Leeds and Sheffield during the coming year.

The newly created positions will see the firm add to its team of consultants working within financial and accountancy recruitment as well as the expansion of its recently established HR division which was launched at the beginning of the year.

Mark Wilson, managing director at Sharp Consultancy said: “As the economy shows positive signs of recovery across a number of sectors and industries we are seeing an increasing number of organisations invigorate their recruitment activity.

“Candidates are also much more confident about their future prospects; where previously they may have exercised caution and been reluctant to move from their current positions, we are now seeing much more movement as confidence begins to return.”

“Recruitment, particularly within the areas in which we operate, is not simply about filling vacancies but requires an in-depth understanding and appreciation of the needs of both clients and candidates; each placement must enable an organisation to meet its business objectives and satisfy the career ambitions of the employee.

“Knowledge and experience within sales does play a part however it is this solutions-focused consultative approach has ensured that – even during challenging times - we have continued to go from strength to strength and invested in our team with training, development, rewards and incentives.”

Sharp Consultancy was established in 1992 opening its first office in Sheffield before expanding into Leeds, Doncaster and Manchester.
