Could you please provide me with a report showing the amount your IT department spent on recruitment agency staff in 2014. I would like this information to be broken down by function or job title or project name.

I would also like to know which recruitment agencies were used by the IT department in 2014.

We said

Recruitment specialist organisations:

Automation Consultants Ltd
Certes Computing Ltd
Hays
LA International
Methods Advisory Ltd
Parity Resources Ltd
Reed Specialist Recruitment Ltd

The total spend for the year on IT Contractors was £9,518,725.

We are unable to split this spend down into Project or Project Name due to the way our purchase-to-pay system works. However, please see the list below of the top 10 IT recruitment roles that we went out for in 2014:
