​Consortium Recruitment, a leading player in the recruitment industry, is celebrating remarkable growth as it concludes its second year of operations. The organisation has achieved an impressive 30% growth in turnover and an astounding 40% expansion in its client base, a testament to the abundant opportunities for businesses and job seekers in the Humber region.

Establishing itself as a frontrunner in strategic talent acquisition across diverse industries, Consortium Recruitment has forged partnerships with major brands in the area since its inception in 2021. David Lipton, Founder and Managing Director of Consortium Recruitment, reflects on the remarkable growth and burgeoning business potential in the Humber, stating, “The Humber region is a dynamic hub of economic opportunity, and our success at Consortium Recruitment is a testament to the immense possibilities that businesses can harness here.

As we finish our second year of unprecedented growth, the thriving business environment in the Humber instils profound confidence in us and our fellow enterprises. The region’s economic vibrancy fuels our commitment to connecting exceptional talent with forward-thinking companies."

The recent launch of Humber Freeports stands as a monumental milestone in the region’s growth narrative, poised to catalyse millions of pounds in investments and generate an impressive 7,000 job opportunities.

The launch follows research from lender IWOCA, which has unveiled a remarkable surge in entrepreneurial activity, with 140 businesses being established daily in the dynamic landscape of

Yorkshire and the Humber. This influx of new enterprises signals not only the region’s economic resilience but also its appeal as a hub for innovation and business development, reaffirming the Humber’s status as a key player in driving economic growth and job creation.

“The impact of initiatives like the Humber Freeports and the surge in entrepreneurial activity is tangible within our business. We’re witnessing the results with an influx of new clients and an increased demand for roles from existing clients. This uptick is a clear indication of growing confidence in the current economic climate.

As businesses recognise the potential and opportunities in the Humber, our role in connecting talent with these forward-thinking enterprises becomes even more pivotal. It’s an exciting time for both our company and the region as a whole as we navigate this wave of growth and contribute to the unfolding success story of the Humber.”

Consortium Recruitment plans to sustain its growth trajectory by doubling the team size within the next 12 months and has recently expanded its office at the Ergo Centre in Hessle.
