Simon Acres Group Branches Out With Dedicated Office For Oval Deene Recruitment

Following the acquisition of Oval Deene Recruitment in 2024, Simon Acres Group Limited has invested in additional office space to support Oval Deene’s continued growth and strengthen its specialist recruitment services. The new office is situated in Royal Tunbridge Wells, giving the group a southern base in addition to Simon Acres Group’s current headquarters in Northamptonshire.

Gemma Creasey, Director – Oval Deene Recruitment and Commercial Director – Simon Acres Group, will now be based at the new office in Royal Tunbridge Wells and will be hosting a client open day event on Thursday 1st May 2025.

The group is also welcoming two new team members to further enhance its recruitment services. Tyler Markwell has been appointed as a Recruitment Consultant and will be based at the new Oval Deene office. Having previously worked as both a Sales Consultant and a Kitchen Sales Designer, Tyler brings a wealth of experience and has a strong knowledge of the KBB industry.

Also joining the group is Ellie Gardner as a Trainee Recruitment Consultant. Ellie is currently studying English Literature with Creative Writing alongside her new role. She has a wonderful learning attitude and dovetails with Simon Acre’s Group company ethos of supporting industry learning and apprenticeships.

Simon Acres, Managing Director, Simon Acres Group, says: “Oval Deene Recruitment is already an award-winning brand with a great reputation in the industry, and we are proud to continue to grow its presence as part of Simon Acres Group. It’s exciting to have additional premises, which not only widens our options geographically, but reinforces our commitment to delivering high-quality, specialist recruitment services. We’re also pleased to welcome Tyler and Ellie to the team. We look forward to seeing them thrive in their new roles as we continue to strengthen our offering and support the future of recruitment in the KBB and construction sectors.”
