Recruitment firm celebrates 15 years of business

Recruitment company 24-7 Staffing is celebrating 15 years in the business.

Founders of the company directors Julian and Melody Thompson celebrated the milestone with a party for staff, clients, suppliers and friends.

Starting out in 2004 from rented offices in Chippenham, 24/7 Staffing now operates from its own Chippenham headquarters and also has branches in Bristol and Salisbury.

Having initially serviced the driving sector, the company has expanded to cover commercial, industrial and – most recently – healthcare.

Over the 15 years, it has registered more than 12,000 candidates and worked with over 300 clients across these four sectors. These include civil engineering and waste management company MJ Church, Wiltshire Council, housing and support charity Olpa, supply chains solution company XPO Logistics, landscaping firm idverde, and fundraising services provider Woods Valldata.

Managing Director Julian Thompson said: “We’re delighted and proud to be marking this milestone and to have had so many of our clients, candidates and friends coming along to celebrate with us.

"To ensure our continued success, we will carry on making significant investments in the business and in internal staff development, because we recognise the important role they play in helping us to achieve shared goals with our clients and candidates. In a challenging recruitment market, where there is low unemployment, we are continually looking at ways to improve, develop and grow our business.”

24-7 Staffing has 28 staff, some of whom have been with the firm for more than ten years and contributes to the local community through a wide range of charitable support.

The many accolades 24-7 Staffing has garnered include winning Wiltshire Business and Chippenham Business annual awards, it is a long-standing member of the Recruitment and Employment Confederation and has been a long-time supporter of Business Against Poverty.
