Synergy – Recruiting, Consulting and Training
Linking forward thinking organisations to people and skills.
With an equal focus on recruitment, consulting and training, Synergy helps organisations to overcome resource issues.
The Synergy Group was created in 1997, from a need to provide high-quality recruitment, contracting and training services to public sector and private sector organisations alike.
Comprehensive skills-acquisition solutions
Organisations within The Synergy Group are able to provide a wide range of services to help resolve resourcing and skills issues:
- The Synergy Group – public and private sector jobs and contracting
- Malla Recruitment – recruitment and contracting in the construction industry
- Training Synergy – people, resources and services for training projects and managed training programmes
Steady business growth
Our business has built on its initial success with steady year-on-year growth. With an annual turnover of around £34 million, Synergy is a substantial business – but not one that is so large that it has lost its sense of community. We’re big enough to have all of the quality processes in place that you’d expect from a large recruitment company, but small enough to not get bogged down in the red tape that hinders the responsiveness of some organisations. Synergy is a financially stable organisation which is 100% debt-free.
A range of solutions
The core of our business is permanent, contract and temporary recruitment and we have an established and varied client base with the public, private and third sectors. Within The Synergy Group is one of the UK’s leading training providers – Training Synergy – which in addition to providing training solutions to organisations across Europe provides a complementary service to our recruitment activities. This means we are able to offer organisations a broad range of solutions, including our unique Kickstart programmes – which seamlessly combine recruitment and training as one of the most effective ways to resolve resourcing issues.
National and international support
With around 120 people in Leeds and London, backed by a contracting workforce of over 1,000 people, Synergy provides services to organisations right around the UK – and increasingly to the rest of the world, especially in Australia, Canada and New Zealand.
It’s all about ownership
Throughout the whole of The Synergy Group, we rightly pride ourselves on ‘problem ownership’ – we solve organisations’ problems by ‘owning’ them and working hard to find the right solution for each client.
We believe that this ethos sets us widely apart from many of our competitors – and is based on how we are ourselves structured. The Synergy Group is wholly owned by its staff and its initial investors, making it one of the largest independent recruitment companies – with the majority of shares (around 90%) being held by employees. So everyone within Synergy is focused on success – success for ourselves by delivering success for our customers.
