Sowena Group expands with new office and hires
Financial and accountancy recruitment business Sowena Group has ramped up its growth strategy with a move into new headquarters at The Tootal Buildings in Manchester city centre, following its launch last summer.
Founder Perran Cooke, with over a decade of recruitment experience, expects to generate over £650,000 in revenue this year.
The company, now a team of five, has welcomed senior recruitment consultants Dave Kreitz and Mackenzie Harrop, along with Leah Allen as head of marketing and Megan Buckley as marketing executive.
Perran said: “The rapid growth of the business has resulted in us now becoming a team of five.
“The expertise that Dave, Mackenzie, Leah and Megan bring to Sowena will support and drive further expansion as we continue to lay strong foundations for the future, with more appointments planned in the coming weeks and months.
“The Tootal Buildings is an excellent location – it’s a modern building with great shared spaces, has the flexibility we need for our growth and is close to transport links.
“Another plus is that it’s steeped in heritage.
“The building still showcases a lot of its history as a textile warehouse, which resonated with me as a business owner proudly based in Manchester.”
Sowena plans to expand to ten team members by the end of the year and diversify its recruitment services to include operations, technology, and HR roles.
It currently focuses on senior finance positions across various sectors, with salaries ranging from £45,000 to £180,000.
