RECRUITMENT firm iMultiply Resourcing is eyeing more acquisitions in Scotland after completing the integration of the Glasgow-based Allen Accountancy Recruitment business it bought in June.
Founder Kirsty Mackenzie said the company had enjoyed some good business wins in recent months, which have given it the confidence to consider buying other firms to help maintain its growth.
With headquarters in Edinburgh, iMultiply has achieved strong growth in the market for interim appointments. It has been capitalising on the increasing popularity of interim appointments.
The firm has enjoyed success with entrepreneurial businesses and social enterprises.
Its customer base includes Blackcircles.com, the tyres business sold by Mike Welch to Michelin in 2015, and data specialist deltaDNA.
The company has enlisted well known figures from the entrepreneurial community to support the growth push.
John Anderson, a former chief executive of the Entrepreneurial Exchange, became chairman in June. He said iMultiply was in great shape for its next phase of growth.
Technology veteran George Elliott joined the advisory board in March.
iMultiply is likely to use acquisitions to broaden its sector expertise and extend its geographic reach. It would consider moving into England if suitable opportunities arose.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
