Founded in 2011, Gleeson Recruitment Group has built a reputation across Executive Search, Interim Management, Transformation and Specialist Recruitment, supporting clients across Accountancy & Finance, Technology, Legal, Human Resources, Marketing, Procurement & Supply Chain, Sales, Property and Life Sciences through its Pharma Partners business.

Sellick Partnership said: “Gleeson Recruitment Group and Sellick Partnership share a relationship-led approach, specialist professional services expertise and a commitment to exceptional client and candidate experiences.

“Together, the businesses create a significant UK specialist recruitment platform, offering national reach, enhanced capabilities across executive search, interim management and professional recruitment, and a shared ambition for continued growth.”

Co-founders Jason Blakey, Tony Gleeson and Jason Granger will continue to lead Gleeson Recruitment Group alongside the existing management team. The Gleeson brand and operating model will remain unchanged.

Hannah Cottam, Chief Executive Officer of Sellick Partnership, commented: “From the outset, what stood out about Gleeson Recruitment Group was the similarity in our business models. Both organisations have been built by passionate founders, place people and relationships at the heart of what they do, and share a commitment to delivering outstanding outcomes for clients and candidates.

“Over the years, we have developed a great deal of mutual respect for the Gleeson team. While each business will continue to operate under its own brand and leadership, we are excited about the opportunity to work alongside colleagues who share our entrepreneurial spirit, commitment to excellence and long-term approach to growth.”
