A Horsham-based rail recruitment company has merged with another rail employment agency to create one of the UK's largest specialists.
Mainline Services has merged with Barnet-based TotalStaffing Rail to become Mainline Staffing.
The announcement came as TotalStaffing Rail announced its expansion plans for the next five years, which should take its turnover to £100 million.
Paul Verghese, general manager of the merged company, said: "There is a great opportunity in the market place and with the merger we are best placed to meet client demands."
The company will supply permanent and temporary staff for the non-safety critical sector.
