Employee management systems are key element in workforce expansion

Putting in place solid and reliable employee management systems is a key step whenever companies of any size or scope decide to expand their workforce in order to cope with increased business demand.

This is specifically the case with Gooch & Housego, who has managed to secure £1.2m from the Regional Growth Fund (RGF) to create 60 jobs in Torquay.

The group has already recruited six new staff and will add a further 30 employees to its workforce in the next three years. Plus, it hopes to increase the number of recruits to 60 over the next ten years, a recent news report in the local business media was able to reveal.

Dr Andrew Robertson, senior vice president system technology group at Gooch and Housego, said: "The Regional Growth Fund has enabled us to further strengthen our capabilities in Torbay and facilitate sustainable strategic growth over the next decade and beyond.

"This will allow us to add many new skills to our R&D team, build our talent pool of Photonics Engineers and continue to expand of our production facilities, crucial to securing our long-term growth."
