Staffing firm ManpowerGroup appoints new UK chief
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM — Staffing firm ManpowerGroup has appointed Michael Stull as country manager of ManpowerGroup UK.
Stull joined ManpowerGroup in 2010 as the firm’s Vice President for Global Marketing at the Milwaukee headquarters. Prior to moving to the UK, Stull was Senior Vice President of Manpower North America from December 2016 to August 2022.
In his new role as ManpowerGroup UK country manager, Stull will be responsible for driving the company’s innovation initiatives, including overseeing ManpowerGroup’s subsidiaries Manpower, Experis, Talent Solutions, and Brook Street.
“Aside from being a great people leader, Michael’s diverse experience spanning marketing, brand, operations, and finance will be a great asset as we chart the next stage of growth for the business connecting even more candidates to meaningful work and clients to skilled talent,” said Riccardo Barberis, ManpowerGroup President, Northern Europe Region.
Stull will replace Mark Cahill, who is stepping down after leading the UK arm for more than 19 years.
“I am excited by the opportunity to lead ManpowerGroup in one of the major markets in the world and to build upon the successful foundation laid by my predecessor,” said Stull.
Cahill will remain in the organization to support Stull and the ManpowerGroup UK senior leadership team during the transition.
The firm reported 2023 third-quarter revenues of $4.7 billion – a 3% decline year-on-year due to lackluster performance in North America and Europe.
Though based in the U.S., Europe is the firm’s largest market. Northern and Southern Europe accounted for $4.05 billion and $8.54 billion, respectively, of its $19.8 billion revenue in 2022. Meanwhile, the Americas contributed $4.9 billion.
