Proactive was founded in
2000, servicing the
Engineering and Transport
sectors. With initial offices in
Egham and a small team of
determined individuals, the
business began to grow.
Over the years, Proactive evolved into
one of the UK's leading technical
recruitment agencies with an envious
staff base and loyal market share. We
opened our second office in 2010 in
London Waterloo, which has today
relocated to Bishopsgate, near Liverpool
Street station.
In 2011, Proactive was acquired
by Human Capital Investment
Group (HCIG). The acquisition
gave Proactive the platform to
build further, whilst providing an
operational support
infrastructure that includes HR,
Compliance, Marketing, Payroll,
Accounts and Credit Control
In 2013, we opened our
third office – this time in
Birmingham Central, to
cater for the ever
growing demand of our
client and candidate
base.
In 2014, Proactive launched AlphaTec
Consulting as a joint venture between
its management team and Proactive –
a Milton Keynes based business
specialising in technology and
electronics recruitment

In early 2016 Proactive will
be opening its office in
Manchester focusing on
the Truck Bus & Coach
Markets - testament to our
continual growth.
