It has clients in central government, local government and the private sector. It has a turnover of £2.6 billion and in 2010 reported a 17 per cent rise in full-year pre-tax profits to £325 million.[1]
Health sector
According to the Health Service Journal: "As English public services enter the so-called “golden age of outsourcing”, nobody will be more influential [than Capita CEO Paul Pindar]. A rash of acquisitions and contract wins, some of which Mr Pindar took a close interest in, mean Capita now has a sizeable health business. [Pindar's] interest in the sector is underlined by his chairing of Great Ormond Street’s corporate partnerships board.[2]
It was reported in Nov 2010 that Capita is bidding to run the NHS's telephone helpline service, NHS Direct.[3]
Pindar ranks 75th in the HSJ's top 100 most influential people in health 2010.[4]
Lobbying
It was reported in 2010 that Capita has donated £1.5m to the Conservative Party in the last ten years.[5]
