Cardiff-based specialist recruitment consultancy, IntaPeople, has announced a record turnover of more than £5m for 2008/09.

The results represent a significant increase of over 32% for the Welsh recruiter, despite the current economic conditions.

The firm has also expanded its executive and interim management division, IntaPeople IEMD, in response to demand for senior and interim executives from organisations throughout Wales and the rest of the UK.

Phil Handley (pictured), resource director of IntaPeople, says: “As a specialist IT, technical and engineering resource provider we have developed mutually beneficial working relationships with a wide spread of industry sector clients throughout the UK, Europe and the Middle East.

“Over the next 12 months we anticipate that the biggest growth will occur in the energy and environmental sector, with many companies looking at green issues and the implementation of latest IT systems to save energy and costs.”
