Ever wondered how BT6 originated, and grew to become one of the most exciting and innovative new recruitment agencies within the regulated sector?
Our Co-CEO, Matthew Porter, tells all...
"Disliking (most, not all) recruitment consultants seems like an odd place to start, when promoting the launch of our exciting new recruitment business, but that’s where it all began!
For several decades now we’ve contended with CV jockeys, filling your inbox with often fictitious messages about ‘immediately available’ people, who turn out to be nothing other than bait to draw you into dialogue, from which it is hard to escape. Back in 2019, we decided to do something about it and we established Bridgetech Resourcing, part of the Bridgetech Group, offering a very different style of recruitment service.
We have a relentless focus on 2 key things: the heart and soul of the candidate, what makes them tick, what drives them on and what topics they’re best suited to. And the heart and soul of the client: what it’s like to work there, the culture, the team, the focus of the business and the journey ahead. When we’ve fully understood all of that, we match the right candidate with the right client opportunity, creating matches that stick.
Happy candidates, happy clients and low attrition; a win win!
After 4 successful years of trading and the rapid expansion of Bridgetech Group as a market-leading SaaS platform business for regulated clients, it became clear that the resourcing business would be better served outside the Group, on its own two feet and free to control its own growth and expansion. And in doing so, make the Bridgetech Group SaaS platform proposition completely clear and defined.
We thus took the decision to demerge the recruitment business from Bridgetech Group, going into partnership with a long time friend and business partner Daniel Rowe. Dan has deep, broad knowledge and experience across the media, marketing and digital industries, and alongside my experience in regulated industries we knew that this proposition made sense. Thus, BT6 was born and the next phase of our journey has begun.
Based in the beautiful, historic, Victorian court buildings in Aylesbury, BT6 is now thriving, serving small, medium and large scale clients across the media and financial services industries. We place everything from administrative candidates all the way up to Board, Partner level candidates, with clients frequently commenting on our different, innovative and intuitive approach to recruitment.
If this sounds of interest, please don’t hesitate to give us a call! We look forward to hearing from you"
Thanks, Matt!
