Award Winners

On Thursday 14th October, The Global Recruiter was finally able to reward and recognise the best of the recruitment industry once again. The Global Recruiter UK Industry Awards were not able to go ahead last year due to the impact of the pandemic. However, they were back better than ever last week, set within a new venue at East Wintergardens, Canary Wharf, London and headline sponsored by MIT Employee Engagement.

This year the awards were able to recognise both exceptional performance and dedication in the sector as well as taking into account the work carried out during the worse of the pandemic. Many recruitment businesses demonstrated how they had weathered the storm, found new ideas and initiatives and even opportunities at this extraordinary time.

Aiste Naujokaityte, client director of the event’s headline sponsor MIT Employee Engagement explained the value of the awards: “It’s an honour to be nominated for those involved, but to win is a huge boost of encouragement to continue with the good work. The event is the perfect environment to celebrate the achievement thus far, as well as to do business networking and make relevant connections for future work.

“Global Recruiter Awards never fail to impress with their venues and the ceremony – it always recognises and rewards the industry’s finest,” she concluded.
