About us

Established in 1996, Stewartson & Associates Limited, our focus today is on providing Outplacement Solutions. Supporting companies undergoing redundancies, providing an outplacement service to the individuals affected by redundancies. Outplacement is not just about supporting those leaving it is providing the company with the tools to also support those remaining and the management team undertaking those difficult conversations, thereby reducing the long term affects of redundancies and laying the foundations for future growth.

When first established we provided in-house recruitment services to the Technology sector with the first two clients a software house operating in the Financial Services space and a new entrant, mobile phone operator.

Over the years we extended both the services we provide and our client portfolio. Clients have included established “blue chips”, fast growth PE or VC owned startups and SME’s.

A BIT MORE ABOUT US

Founded in 1996, Stewartson & Associates was established to enable the founder to provide in-house recruitment solutions. Having previously worked 10 years both contingency agency side and for a headhunting & recruitment advertising company, our founder moved “in-house”. Initially working for a FinTech, nine months later saw our founder working for a start-up mobile phone company for the following 4 years. Here he helped grow the IT directorate from 120 staff to over 350 in under two years; working with the Network Services Directorate to create a volume recruitment model for Field and Switch Technicians and; centralising the Contractor Recruitment and Contractor Management process – bringing major improvements on meaningful Management Information, controlling costs, reducing time to hire and addressing the IR35 issues and protecting the business.

Other clients followed in the technology space – with companies operating in Systems Integration, Fixed Telecoms, Billing & Customer Care Solutions, IT Support & Infrastructure, Digital Cinema and Chip Design.
