    UK and Europe boosts recruiter Robert Walters

    Author Writer Date published October 6, 2010 Categories

    Strong performance in the UK boosted recruiter Robert Walters during the
    summer.

    In a Q3 trading update to 30 September, the recruiter said that trading in
    the UK was “positive”, while its offices in Europe achieved a healthy net fee
    income during the traditionally more quieter summer period.

    UK gross profit climbed to £12.6m, compared to £8.5m a year earlier. Europe
    profits climbed to £7.4m from £5.6m.

    “Trading in the UK has been positive, in spite of continued economic
    uncertainty…” said chief executive Robert Walters.

    Group headcount has increased to 1,640, from 1,232 a year earlier.
