Selima increased its staff at a country-wide level in 2010 by taking on 11 new employees across a number of departments in the business. The decision to recruit coincides with Selima's success last year in securing a number of new contracts for 2011 including Glasgow Housing Association and Robert Gordon University, as well as undertaking siginificant payroll projects with Bakkavor, and the councils at Rhondda Cynon Taf, Neath Port Talbot and Oldham.

"Increasing the employee count within the business will increase efficiency, reduce implementation time on projects and improve customer support for all customers" said Graham Whitehouse, managing director.

The customer support team based in Sheffield has more than doubled in size since April 2010 with the arrival of 4 new product support specialists, 2 HR product support specialists and a payroll consultant. The London based managed service division has had to add payroll technicians to the team to help with a number of new school payroll projects. The Manchester HQ has also seen an increase in personnel, with the addition of another senior software developer, an experienced office manager and a recently graduated sales & marketing assistant.
