Seven Step RPO, a leading provider of recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) services, today announced that it has opened a new office in Denver, Colorado and has plans to hire 250 new employees in the Denver market. After experiencing unparalleled year-over-year revenue growth of 101 percent in Q1 2013, Seven Step seeks to expand its footprint by increasing its presence in the Western U.S.
“We chose Denver for many reasons, including its booming high-tech market, proximity to our West Coast clientele, and its wealth of dedicated, highly educated professionals,” said Paul Harty, president of Seven Step RPO. “The spirit of the city made it an easy choice for us, as it mirrors the passionate and innovative culture of our Boston headquarters.”
Home to more than 2.8 million people, Metro Denver is one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the U.S., according to Metro Denver Economic Development Corporation’s Chief Executive Officer, Tom Clark. Colorado also boasts the country’s third-highest percentage of college graduates, which is critical to Seven Step’s own recruitment effort as it looks to attract its next generation of high-performing talent. “Seven Step is the perfect fit for Denver, as the region looks to attract dynamic, high-growth organizations that will create jobs for our young, tech savvy workforce,” noted Mr. Clark.
Seven Step’s 15,962-square-foot office is located in Civic Center Plaza at 1560 Broadway, Suite 502. “The 22-story, Class A office building in Denver’s Central Business District has a perfect combination of location, ease of access and amenities,” commented Nathan Johnson, executive managing director at Newmark Grubb Knight Frank. Mr. Johnson represented the tenant during Seven Step’s real estate search.
