Social Housing Recruitment to become Principal People - Technical Services

Important information

Social Housing Recruitment (SHR) will merge into Principal People, and together, we are renaming SHR a new discipline within the PP organisation: Principal People Technical Services. This change allows us to expand our services and strengthen our capabilities to better serve you.

Who are Principal People?

Established in 1986, Principal People is a leading recruitment agency based in the UK that specialises in Health, Safety, Environment, and Quality (HSEQ). They are dedicated to connecting exceptional professionals with outstanding organisations, helping businesses across various sectors create safe, sustainable, and thriving environments. With decades of experience, they have built a reputation for delivering exceptional, people-first recruitment services, with ethics, passion, and zeal at the core of their values.

Why Are We Doing This?

This transition reflects our commitment to delivering greater value and improving our services. By joining Principal People, we will benefit from their established infrastructure, industry expertise, and market reputation as a Health, Safety, Environment, and Quality (HSEQ) recruitment leader.

Principal People’s robust systems and streamlined operations will enable us to deliver more efficient, effective solutions. Their established market presence also gives us access to a wider network and resources, strengthening our ability to support clients and candidates in the Built Environment and Technical Services sectors.

This is a fantastic opportunity, as it allows us to grow and innovate under the umbrella of a highly respected and established organisation.

What Does This Mean for You?

You will continue to work with the same dedicated team you know and trust, but with access to a broader range of services, deeper industry expertise, and the enhanced resources of Principal People. We are committed to ensuring a seamless transition and maintaining the same high standards of quality and service you’ve come to expect.

For Our Clients
If you are a client, this opportunity means an enhanced ability to meet your recruitment needs, with access to a wider talent pool and expanded expertise across both Technical Services and HSEQ disciplines.

To ensure compliance with our new organisational structure, we will require all clients with agreed terms under Social Housing Recruitment (SH Recruit Ltd) to re-sign terms with Principal People (PP Recruitment Ltd). A member of our team will contact you shortly to arrange this process and answer any questions you may have. We are here to support you every step of the way.

For Our Candidates
If you are currently in the process of a job application, rest assured that there will be no disruption, and your consultant will remain your dedicated point of contact throughout the transition.

If you are a supplier, our finance team will contact you directly to discuss any implications that might affect you. In the meantime, if you require any help or have any questions, please contact r.perfect@principalpeople.co.uk or call 01252 759 162.

What’s Next?

Most of the changes will occur over the week commencing 2^nd December 2024, where we will migrate to Principal People email addresses and formally present as Principal People Technical Services. Our main office phone number (0203 8000 888) will also be redirected to Principal People’s (01252 759 162).
