Paul Nelson
Managing Director
When Nelson Recruitment Services was founded in 2013, Paul built it on a foundation of honesty, respect and integrity; three key values that he held closely when working shoulder to shoulder with esteemed clients.
After 15 informative years honing his skills in the world of recruitment, he decided to take the leap into self employment; drawing on his knowledge of the market and passion for professionalism and proficiency, launching Nelson Recruitment Services (NRS) in 2013.
In simple terms, NRS was built on a desire for change. From hearing first hand of the poor service and experience his clients had received in the past from other competing recruitment agencies, his aim was, and still is, to be different - offering a service that is second to none and competitive too.
Since the launch of NRS back in 2013, his business portfolio grew from strength to strength, with Nelson Group Holdings now being responsible for three leading recruitment businesses that service leading brands across the Midlands and more recently, nationwide.
With a reputation for excellence, NRS and its sister brands not only care to provide the highest quality service for new and existing clients across a multitude of sectors, but, as an strong advocate of professional development, Paul also make it a priority to invest in his team, providing ongoing recruitment training and support from day one.
Sadly, in August 2021, Paul passed away. Paul always had a strong desire to change the face of mental health, particularly for men, but after his own mental health struggles, died by suicide. Following Paul’s death, Amy, and more recently Reiss, have carried on the legacy left by Paul and continue to grow the Nelson Group Holding’s brands to honour Paul’s memory.
Paul is, and always will be, missed by all the of Nelson Group Holding’s team and we will continue to make him proud.
