Blue Arrow has won a contract for public sector agency recruitment with the social housing purchasing consortium, Procurement for Housing (PfH).

The agreement, valued at upwards of £300m, provides housing bodies across the country with ready access to a high standard of labour, significant reductions in administration and strong cost savings. 

Julie Craig, director PfH, says: "PfH is geared to providing housing organisations with a cost effective means of purchasing. The sector needs to meet its efficiency targets and maintain necessary services to a high standard.  Deals like this one with Blue Arrow offer the opportunity to successfully achieve both these aims."

The Blue Arrow team consists of commercial, construction, catering, social care and domiciliary care divisions. It is the sole provider for office, catering and construction and one of eight preferred suppliers for care and specialist housing workers.
