Abraxas Information

With over 30 years experience of serving clients Internationally and filling their IT and Life Sciences staffing vacancies, both Contract and Permanent, you can be assured we will deliver, every time. The history of a company says more about its abilities and intentions than any sales pitch or glossy marketing brochure ever can. Abraxas was formed in 1974 and through a sustained period of organic growth became one of the largest and most successful IT recruitment companies that the UK has ever seen. Abraxas has also then gone on to form subsidiary companies in Germany, America and Australia. We've only ever done IT, and that's why we like doing it - we know the market. We have recently joined forces with other companies to further our brand - In 1997 Abraxas was acquired by Select Appointments which by 1999 merged with the Dutch group Vedior, the world's third largest staffing services organisation. 2008 saw the exciting development of Randstad merging with Vedior, creating a parent company which is now ranked 2nd largest staffing company worldwide. This provides a huge resource for the company and allows us to utilise the network of sister companies in 44 countries comprising 2,243 offices worldwide. 2009 is another exciting year of planned growth for Abraxas, with development of our strong market presence into new fields and expansion within our flagship London office in Oxford Circus.
