Fairways is growing!
January 2018
Having enjoyed more than 7 years in the Balmoral Suite premises we agreed the offices had become too small and so took the decision to move to bigger premises as part of our growth strategy. Towards the end of 2017 we renovated the old Royal British House property and made it a grand building once more – as it deserves to be. So lately although not moving very far we have seen busy times both in workload and relocating to our new premises in the remarkable Royal British House building in Leonard Street Perth and we are delighted to see the improvements draw to a close. With on-site parking premises even closer to the train station than previously our clients find this very handy. We now have an improved venue to hold our training sessions and hiring our board room externally for client meetings and events.

Fairways Goes from Strength to Strength
June 1994
10 years has passed since the birth of Fairways with never a dull day to be seen. With less secretarial business being carried out and more and more recruitment requirements increasing for local businesses lots of new clients and contracts both large and small are being won by Fairways due to the high quality of candidate being offered to clients.
Fairways is Born
June 1984
Fairways Business Services later to become Fairways Recruitment Agency was born. In its very early days Fairways started its operation as a secretarial services firm supplying typing services to companies and individuals all over Scotland including book writers and a comedienne. Very quickly the business adapted and became a recruiting business. At that time the business operation was served from offices in Watergate Perth until 2010.
