Multi-sector recruiter Kellan Group has released its half-year results. Revenue was £25.4m, up from £8.3m on the same period last year, while net fee income increased by 20% on the first half of last year to £13.1m.

The group, formerly known as Berkeley Scott, has acquired engineering recruiter Quantica and financial recruiter RK.

John Rose, chief executive of Kellan Group, said: “The past six months has been a period of considerable achievement for the Kellan Group. The Group has produced a strong set of results, achieving all the objectives we set twelve months ago. The company is now moving ahead into a new phase of its development. We have achieved strong growth in profitability and increased cash generation. Quantica, in particular, is growing ahead of its sector average. We have also delivered on our promise to bring about a dramatic turnaround in the Berkeley Scott business."
