IT recruiter Redrock Consulting has seen a 30% increase in fee income for the first half of the year.  

The firm reports that gross fee income for six months from January to June 2010 was £1.430m, up from £1.010m in the six months from July to December 2009.

Redrock managing director Dean Harte says: “Increase in demand is being driven by the number of British SMEs competing on a world stage in the fields of innovation, particularly in the areas of mobile and web-based technologies and also by entrepreneurial start ups launching products that compliment these industries. All are looking for the best and most ambitious candidates to fuel their growth.
