Select Appointments has secured a three-year contract with Milton Keynes Council to manage its recruitment operations.

The deal will target all divisions of staffing, from office work through to social care.

Select Managed Services, which is a division of Select Appointments, will handle the recruitment supply chain.

Milton Keynes Council typically recruits between 25 and 150 people per month.

Barbara Cliffe from Milton Keynes Council commented: “We are continually looking at ways to streamline processes and drive cost efficiencies without compromising on quality.

“Partnering with Select will help us to achieve this by revising and managing the whole recruitment supply chain.”

Craig Millhouse, head of managed services for Select, said: “We will be overseeing the entire recruitment process for Milton Keynes Council, from handling suppliers to meeting and greeting every new candidate and providing them with identification. We are looking forward to becoming an active part of the organisation and working closely with them to meet its recruitment needs.”
