Six-figure funding for Yorkshire’s Recruitment Driven ahead of North West expansion
West Yorkshire-based Recruitment Driven has expanded into new premises with six-figure funding.
The HGV driver recruitment business used the funding, provided by HSBC, to acquire additional premises in Birstall.
Recruitment Driven was founded in 2012 and has since built a roster of drivers working across a range of sectors.
The expansion is part of a wider growth plan that includes entering markets in the North West over the coming months.
In addition to its core recruitment services, Recruitment Driven also provides training programmes for existing drivers and those looking to embark on a career in the industry.
Recruitment Driven director Sean Bartrupe said: “It’s fantastic to see our network of talented drivers grow and we’re delighted to have worked with so many great clients over the past few years.
“The new Birstall site will enable us to diversify our range of drivers and training, creating an improved service for customers and drivers alike.”
Jo Dickinson, HSBC’s area director for South and West Yorkshire, commented: “We’re delighted to help this ambitious West Yorkshire firm expand to new locations throughout the country and enter key markets.
“We look forward to seeing what the future holds.”
