Amberjack: recruiting support

Based in Berkshire, Amberjack’s mission is to enable a world in which people are hired and progressed on the basis of their future potential. 

Amberjack provides its specialist services and software solutions to many of the UK’s largest employers, with a focus on early-careers candidates, specifically graduates, school leavers and apprenticeship programmes.

The business uses proprietary cloud-based software tools to automate processes, manage application volumes and provide data driven insights to help assess and select candidates and provide a professional experience to candidates.

Its clients include major organisations such as Mars, Network Rail, PwC, EY, Virgin Media and Morrisons.

Backing the management team

In April 2019 we invested £17.6m in Amberjack to support a management buyout and accelerate the business’s growth strategy, which included providing capital to support investment in the software and technology propositions and to help the business explore complementary acquisitions to broaden its service offering.

The business’ innovative services and software now help over 300,000 people begin new careers every year.

In June 2023, Australia and New Zealand’s leading graduate outsource partner, Fusion Graduate Consultancy, joined the Amberjack Group. The development extends the business’ service offering to include Learning & Development and expands Amberjack’s international presence.
