Full service employee engagement consultancy Engage has seen an influx of new recruits after a surge in demand for its services.

The London-headquartered company specialises in providing employee engagement solutions that deliver measurable business performance. Its end-to-end offer spans measurement, leadership, communications and social business and collaboration.

In recent weeks, Engage’s employee base has expanded by 25% in order to meet new and existing client demands.

CEO Dr Andy Brown said: “As the UK dips in and out of a global economic recession, the world in which companies operate is becoming much more complex. This has meant organisations are turning to tailored measures of engagement to create business stability and growth in the uncertain times ahead.”
