Professional recruiter FreshMinds Talent is opening an Edinburgh office to serve the Scottish market.

FreshMinds Scotland will offer select, interim and graduate talent solutions, and will be headed up by Mike Leeman, formerly of IT and financial services recruiter Bright Purple Resourcing and before that Michael Page.

FreshMinds Talent’s managing director, James Callander, says: “It is very exciting to be in the position to expand our business into a new geography. For us, Edinburgh was the obvious choice in terms of the sectors we work in and the attractions the city has to offer. 

“We have identified an opportunity for expansion into the Scottish market and now aim to replicate the FreshMinds focus on quality and excellence in our FreshMinds Scotland venture.”
