MPA Recruitment named UK’s fastest growing multi sector firm

MPA is the first Northern Ireland company to top the Multi Sector list and this accolade recognises their exceptional growth over the last three years.

The Recruiter Magazine Fast 50 programme, now in its 12th year, ranks the UK’s fastest growing recruitment companies, out of 39,000, and recognises those organisations that has demonstrated exceptional growth in turnover in the last three financial periods.

Founded in 1997, MPA Recruitment is one of the largest staffing providers in Northern Ireland, employing around 1300 people, throughout six offices in Derry-Londonderry, Belfast, Omagh, Armagh, Ballymena and Coleraine.

“As the first Northern Ireland company ever to top the Multi Sector List and to make the Top 10, I’m extremely proud of what the MPA team has achieved,” said MD Paul McQue.

“To stay on course, to treble the organisation’s turnover to £20m+ in less than three years, with no acquisitions, is rare in any business, particularly one with so much competition here in Northern Ireland.

Mr McQue attributed that growth to an “outstanding team” throughout the branch and the loyalty of the firm’s customer base.

“We have unparalleled retention rates for staff and clients within the sector and here at MPA we have led the way in Northern Ireland in embracing new technology and in how we interact with our candidates and our clients, driving sustainable innovation in the recruitment market.”
