Plexus plc places IT professionals in a range of contract and permanent positions with top companies throughout the UK, continental Europe and increasingly further afield.

As one of the UK's fastest growing IT recruitment companies, we recognise that our success relies primarily on our contractors and permanent staff and our ability to search out and win business for them from blue chip companies. By recruiting and retaining the most talented IT professionals we are able to match their skills to our clients' needs and reward our contractors with some of the most interesting and challenging assignments in banking, finance, manufacturing, distribution and other major industries.

Plexus Personnel was founded in 1990 and the company moved to its current Weybridge offices in 1994, and opened its London offices earlier this year. Weybridge was chosen because of its proximity to London and its easy accessibility by road, rail and air to the rest of the UK and Europe. This location, along with our London office, makes it easy for our contractors to visit us. All our consultants have extensive experience in personnel recruitment, backed up by strong technical and commercial expertise, and go forward for the examinations of the Institute of Employment Consultants.

We are rigorous in our pursuit of professionalism and good practice in all aspects of our business. Our ISO 9002 accreditation means that our internal administrative procedures and systems conform to stringent quality standards which are audited and approved on a regular basis.

Plexus is a member of the Computer Division of the Federation of Recruitment and Employment Services (FRES) which has established comprehensive guidelines to assist candidates and contractors. As members of the Independent Computer Contractors (ICC) Specialist Group of the British Computer Society, we actively subscribe to the group's codes of conduct and practice.

Our innovative approach to IT staffing solutions appeals to an expanding portfolio of blue chip corporations. Present on the preferred suppliers list of more than 100 companies, we have also formed alliances and sole supplier partnerships with many. The services of our contractors are sought for positions across the management spectrum from user support through to applications development, systems analysis, operations and project management.

 

Here are some of the ways we will assist you at various stages of your career : 

Career guidance We will offer an objective assessment of your skills and provide advice on market trends, steering you towards contracts which will enhance your marketability. 

Advice on training We can help you select accredited training courses which will add value to your skills set. 

Professionalism and confidentiality We are honest and fair in our approach at all times. Information supplied to us is treated in confidence and we will always request your permission before passing a copy of your CV to an employer. Continuity of work While you are employed on one assignment, your account manager can help you firm up objectives for future contracts. 

Marketing If you have the right skills set, we can market your services to clients where we anticipate a need exists but has yet to be identified. Accessibility Our account managers are available from 08.00am to 8.30pm four days a week and until 6pm on Friday. 

Payment of limited company set up fees. If you do not already benefit from running your own limited company, we will be happy to meet the start-up costs and organise the administrative aspects for you. This is valid for contractors who are on, or about to start, an assignment with Plexus. (You are of course free to work on a PAYE basis for as long as you wish.) 

Immediate payment of invoices We make payment electronically to limited companies within 24 hours of receipt of an invoice and corresponding time sheet/s. A remittance advice letter is forwarded separately confirming payment. 

Completion bonus schemes Contractors who complete their assignments and secure a second or third contract may be eligible for attractive completion bonuses (if stated within the terms of the contract). 

Flexibility A contract may be terminated subject to prior discussion with your account manager and completion of the agreed notice period. We want you to enjoy working with Plexus and believe that the restrictive terms imposed by some agencies can be counterproductive. Professional indemnity insurance Our contractors are covered by direct indemnity insurance whilst on assignment through Plexus.
