HCRG Workforce Solutions, the healthcare workforce solutions provider, has acquired the brands, intellectual property, and operations of Altrix Group, including TFS Healthcare and Soleus People.
Sheffield-based Altrix Group recently filed a notice of intent to appoint administrators, with Martyn Rickels and Anthony Collier, partners at FRP Advisory, appointed as joint administrators of the company on 10 March 2025.
The pre-pack purchase by HCRG Workforce Solutions resulted from an accelerated marketing process initiated by FRP, and secures the jobs of approximately 45 Altrix employees.
It is business as usual for Altrix Group, as Managing Director Megan Grant continues to lead operations as part of HCRG Workforce Solutions.
Known as ‘The app-based nursing agency’, the acquisition of Altrix Group further enhances HCRG Workforce Solutions’ technology offer with benefits for candidates and clients as the business continues to grow its sustainable staffing offer.
The sustainable staffing model sees HCRG Workforce Solutions focus on long-term partnerships which reduce costs for employers, including through managed services, staff banks, and permanent recruitment. Altrix Group’s technology is aimed at using automation to reduce costs for agencies, and in turn employers and increase flexibility and work-life balance for healthcare staff.
Gary Taylor, Group Chief Executive at HCRG Workforce Solutions, said: “Altrix Group will be a fantastic addition to our market-leading health & social care workforce solutions portfolio.
