Specialist insurance, financial and professional services recruitment solutions provider Eames Consulting Group has recorded a “positive” start to the year with Q1 profits over £2m.

Matthew Jaquiss, managing director, says: “We are pleased to announce that in Q1 of 2010 we achieved sales (gross profit) of over £2m. In 2009 we produced great results, growing by over 30% in tough economic environment to generate gross profit (net fee income) of £3.1m.

“What is outstanding with these results is the average of £100,000 of net fee income per head per quarter, not the £2m figure itself, as some of the much larger independent companies have released similar figures. We are not surprised by these results but delighted that our year has started so positively.”
