Permanent Solutions Direct Meet a Real Dragon!
Permanent Solutions Direct with James Caan
While exhibiting at the 2008 Sussex Enterprise Annual Conference in Brighton, Permanent Solutions Direct met with James Caan on his walkabout of the event. The Henfield-based Recruitment Company were relieved to find meeting this Dragon was less intimidating than the Dragon’s Den style interview they endured to reach the final of this year’s Sussex Business Awards in the Best Small Business category. Lisa Jarvis, Director said, “His opening comment was that ours was an industry he was extremely familiar with, having made his fortune in Recruitment! He was so easy to talk to, and having just undergone a branding update it was great that he visited our stand on the first unveiling of our new look.”
Trading for only 4 years, Permanent Solutions Direct has grown to service some of the biggest international names in the UK. With their record of outstanding customer care, they are also finalists in the 2008 London & South East Recruitment Awards. Lisa Jarvis said, “Having come third in this event last year we are hopeful that our continuing team policy to offer a service with integrity will give us that extra edge to beat our own record”.
