TPP Recruitment | About us

TPP WAS FOUNDED

Founded in 1996 as ‘The Principle Partnership’ in order to provide a high quality recruitment service to the not for profit sector.

The initial focus was on four core teams supplying both temporary workers and permanent staff in the Fundraising, Finance, Executive and Office Support areas.

Jayne Morris joined the company.

Moved to Tooley Street.

Added Executive Search and Selection and Healthcare teams. Marketing and Communications branched from Fundraising to form an independent team.

Tracey George joined the company.

Launched our series of free CPD seminars.

Acquired Newman Personnel, a well-established, highly reputable, privately owned commercial recruitment organisation.

Company rebranded as TPP to reflect changes within the business. Two distinct divisions were created; TPP NFP (not for profit) and TPP Newman (commercial).

Added Education team.

Rob Hayter and Russell Carr joined the company.

Moved to Lime Street.

Launched our recruitment trainee scheme to develop new consultants.

Acquired by TPP Recruitment LLP. Jayne Morris, who has been with TPP since 1999, became a partner of the LLP and CEO. Tracey George was promoted to MD.

A conscious decision was made to return to the original not for profit business concept. The Newman brand dissolved and all efforts went into strengthening and expanding client relationships within the third / public sectors.
