(Reuters) - British recruiter PageGroup warned of lower annual profit on Tuesday, citing weaker-than-expected hiring in June and a more cautious view for the second half of the year.

The company now expects full-year 2024 operating profit to be in the region of 60 million pounds ($76.86 million). It had reported profit of 118.8 million pounds last year.
