The Monarch Group of companies, which operates agencies for international bank Santander, is opening three new offices across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, creating more than 40 jobs in the region.
 
Multi-sector recruiter Positive Outcomes has secured the contract to co-ordinate all Monarch’s recruitment requirements for the new branch offices in Sutton in Ashfield, Langley Mill and Ilkeston, as part of a three-year preferred supplier contract with Monarch, which holds the licence to operate agencies of Santander in the UK.
 
The contract sees Positive Outcomes act as Monarch’s sole supplier for all its recruitment, training and apprenticeships across its UK network of nine existing branches, in addition to the three new branches in the East Midlands, and for additional new sites that are scheduled for opening by the end of 2011.
 
Positive Outcomes has already begun the recruitment process for the 40-plus staff for vacancies including posts for secretarial, administrative and management personnel.
