Knowles continues: "Already we have had to take on additional staff across each of the key sectors we manage in order to meet the demands being placed on us by our clients - which is certainly an enjoyable position to be in".
"NES's competitive positioning and strong brand name in the sector is encouraging high levels of repeat business as well as really driving through our new business development opportunities".
Mark Tully, Managing Director, comments: "Both Lee and Duncan have repeatedly demonstrated their capability to deliver what has been asked of them and these appointments illustrate the opportunities that NES can offer as a forward-thinking, proactive organisation that is continually pushing the boundaries in each of the industry sectors it services".
"As always, with situations like this, promotions create their own prospects for talented individuals to rise through the ranks - the only difficulty now is how to choose between so many qualified recruiters".
