Twenty20 Capital Support

We recognised AWS’s ability to meet the growing challenge of recruiting and retaining a high-quality workforce. Through collaboration we were able to give senior management the confidence to promote success; embrace fresh thinking; and adopt an innovative approach to problem-solving. From this, the business began to thrive; unleashing huge growth potential as they proudly delivered solutions that schools, academies and colleges desperately needed.

As the business built tenacity; additional financial support was offered to bolster AWS’s tutoring division; a new business unit which filled a gap in the market and today sees considerable social impact. Investment was also made in technology, learning and development and restructuring to make the brand more agile and improve overall performance.

“We are grateful to the Twenty20 Capital team for their continued support and investment, which allows us to provide a cost-effective and professional service to our clients in a candidate-shortage industry. Twenty20 are aligned to our purposeful mission and passion for transforming the education space.”

Twenty20 Capital Support

Twenty20 Capital joined forces with The Recruitment Co. when the economy was under pressure due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The brand was steady and stable but showed potential for further growth and sector expansion.

At the time of purchase, The Recruitment Co. was comfortably generating a healthy profit, however, after a transformational management restructure, a full rebrand, plus entry into new geographies and markets the business is now breaking profit records.

Working with Twenty20 has allowed our business to achieve great things. Their support is not only financial; they inspire and motivate new ways of thinking, and innovative ways of achieving business success. Our aspirational growth goals are now becoming a reality.
