How Maidstone is managing to change

Maidstone is fast becoming home to businesses from a variety of different sectors. TUSP, a top 70 UK management consultancy, has recently relocated here from Surrey. So why does it see Maidstone as pivotal to the success of its growth plans?

Maidstone is a significant regional centre for professional services and is now the headquarters of TUSP, an ambitious and fast growing consultancy offering expertise in Change Management, Project Management and People Solutions. Having relocated from Surrey, TUSP was attracted to Maidstone's entrepreneurial culture and active business community. Moreover, TUSP has found Maidstone's location to be ideal, with its excellent road and rail links providing easy access to its London-based Blue Chip clients.

So what about Maidstone's smaller businesses? TUSP is looking to develop relationships with local SMEs through its 'Get in Shape for 2008' Business Coaching initiative. As your business coach, TUSP will look beyond short-term fixes to focus on sustainable business fitness which has a lasting, positive impact on performance.

TUSP has particular expertise in the automotive, aerospace, defence, financial services, rail and telecoms sectors. It is looking to recruit talented and experienced individuals from the local area to support its ambitious growth plans and join its strong team of consultants. Guy Smith, TUSP's head of sales and marketing had this to say on the decision to come to Kent, "Maidstone has proved to be a great place to base our consultancy. We were particularly attracted by its strong offering to knowledge-driven businesses and its excellent transport links. Plus, the area has plenty of like-minded companies and public sector individuals that we're delighted to do business with."
