Notes to editors:


SThree, founded in 1986, is an international specialist staffing business,
providing both permanent and contract staff to a diverse, client base of well
over 6,000 clients.  From its well-established position as a major player in the
information and communications technology ('ICT') sector the Group has broadened
the base of its operations by building fast-growing businesses serving the
banking and finance, accountancy, human resources, engineering, energy and
pharmaceuticals sectors.


Following the establishment of its first business, Computer Futures, in 1986,
the Group adopted a multi-brand strategy. SThree currently operates 12
separately managed brands, the four largest being Computer Futures, Huxley
Associates, Progressive and Pathway, and has 33 offices in the UK and 19
overseas offices, 15 elsewhere in Europe, the Netherlands, Belgium, France,
Germany and Ireland.  In 2006, the Group opened its first North American office,
in New York, and recently opened offices in Australia, Hong Kong and Dubai.


SThree has a selective approach to clients and focuses on high margin
opportunities, predominantly within the small to medium-sized enterprises 
('SMEs') market and, from its inception, the Group has avoided the high volume, 
low margin business model in favour of a focus on high quality business.


SThree plc is quoted on the Official List of the UK Listing Authority under the
