Medical Professional Personnel Limited Acquires Parkhill Executive Resourcing

Medical Professional Personnel (MPP) today announced that it has acquired the business of Parkhill Executive Resourcing, which specialises in NHS finance recruitment.

Parkhill’s managing consultant, Alan Waterman, has been appointed as Medical Professional Personnel’s new NHS Finance Manager.

Brendan Hannigan, CEO of Medical Professional Personnel, said: “We are extremely excited to take the strategic step of diversifying into the NHS finance recruitment market. We believe this is a growth market which fits ideally with our existing successful healthcare recruitment services within nursing, medical locums and homecare.

“MPP is delighted to welcome Alan to our team. Alan has an impressive track record in growing the finance recruitment business during his eight years with Parkhill and securing his expertise was an invaluable part of this agreement. “

From 19 November 2012, all existing healthcare finance recruitment contracts will migrate across from Parkhill to Medical Professional Personnel.

The agreement has been reached following amicable discussions between Medical Professional Personnel, Parkhill and its host Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust.

The transfer of business represents a positive move for both organisations. As a specialist healthcare recruitment company, Medical Professional Personnel is in an ideal position to successfully run the healthcare finance recruitment division.

With this new acquisition, Medical Professional Personnel intends to invest in, strengthen and expand significantly within the healthcare finance market.
