Galaxy case study.

Galaxy Personnel is an example of a start-up employment agency that has achieved the success it has today due to the support of Jark

Recruitment company Galaxy, who specialise in Agriculture, Construction and Industrial, began in 2002. With the support of Jark, Galaxy have achieved a 35% higher turnover at the end of 2010 than in the same nine periods last year. This is an extraordinary achievement considering the market and the current climate.

Jark supported Galaxy with backend support functions and Peter Blackmur, Galaxy Managing Director, said: "With Jark managing the support functions I can run my company rather than spending time on things like accounts. Having four-weekly accounts provided by Jark, that I would never have time to do as a small business, allows me to manage the business better by having the ability to change pricing and key performance indicators.

"Jark allow a small business to have structure and a future direction. Working with a larger organisation gives you motivation, you can talk about ideas with someone in the same industry that understands you."

Galaxy started a new Construction division in June 2010 and at the end of the same year (in one of the more challenging climates) had, on average, more than 30 temps out per day.
