Services provider for the education sector reveals ambitious growth plans

A Macclesfield-based supplier of software, training and consultancy services to the education sector has revealed ambitious workforce growth plans following a 48 per cent rise in turnover, a recent report in the local media has been able to suggest.

HCSS Education has posted a rise in revenues from £2.3m in 2013/14 to £3.4m in 2014/15 and predicts that turnover will rise further to £4.5m in 2015/16 and £7.2m in 2016/17.

Howard Jackson, chief executive at HCSS Education, said: "We’re experiencing a period of substantial strategic growth and based on this year’s figures we’re predicting that 2015/16 will be a record-breaking year for us.

"Over the last few years, HCSS Education has transformed into a hugely successful business, delivering innovative products and services to the market and this is look set to continue, along with new client wins and a big recruitment drive.”
