Nicholas Associates Group (NA Group), a talent management firm with an annual turnover exceeding £86 million, has acquired Hull-based recruitment agency Smart Temporary Solutions Limited. The move expands NA Group’s presence in the industrial and manual labour staffing sector and strengthens its nationwide service offering.
Smart Temporary Solutions specialises in temporary and temp-to-perm staffing for blue-collar industries. The acquisition aligns with NA Group’s strategy to enhance its workforce solutions across the UK.
David Kitney, founder of Smart Temporary Solutions, is stepping away from the business following the acquisition. He expressed confidence that NA Group’s leadership will continue to support the agency’s clients, candidates, and employees.
NA Group, headquartered in Rotherham, operates several brands, including Stafforce, The Apprentice Employment Agency, and Graduate Career Solutions.
