Recruitment, staffing and human capital management firm Logical Resources Recruitment Group has launched a new IT division in Manchester. 

The division is led by managing director Grahame Morrison.

Logical Resources chairman Ian Thornley says: “Our move into IT recruitment and staffing services is a key element of our strategic plan to expand the range of professional recruitment and staffing service lines that we offer.

“We are greatly encouraged by the strong start we have seen in the business already, and the prospects for continuing healthy demand for our services as we move into the second quarter of 2011.”
