MHR is a specialist provider of software and outsourcing services for HR, talent management, payroll and business intelligence. The company operates from its headquarters in Nottingham, UK and supports the management, development and payment of just over 10% of the UK workforce.[1]
History
Established by Chairman John Mills in 1984, the company was set up as Midland Software Limited - before changing its trading name to MidlandHR - to supply human resource and payroll software to clients on ICL VME and IBM 370 mainframes.
In 1992 the company moved to its current headquarters, Nottingham’s Ruddington Hall, and later acquired a second set of offices in the same area to deliver its outsourcing services. As of July 2016, MidlandHR employed more than 560 staff.[1]
MidlandHR then started and continued to develop its solutions in-house. The latest software product iTrent was released in 2007, and is a platform to deliver end-to-end HR and payroll processing.
In 2011, MidlandHR acquired PBS UK; a company that offers HR and payroll solutions for small to medium sized businesses.
In July 2016, MidlandHR re-branded and changed its name to MHR, to further the company's national presence and expansion into the USA market.[citation needed]
