Tech recruitment firm wins in two categories 

UK-based tech recruitment firm VHR has just been announced as the winner of the International Trade and Employer of the Year categories at the 2022 Global Business Excellence Awards.

The Global Business Excellence Awards are one of the world’s highest profile awards and have a large panel of independent expert judges who select winners based on strict criteria for each category and sector. They focus on financial results, innovation, customers, employees, investors, and community benefits.

The Awards attract entries worldwide, from large international PLCs and public sector organisations to SMEs.

Danny Brooks, CEO at VHR, said: “The VHR team and I are beyond delighted and deeply honoured to have received a double award win at the Global Business Excellence Awards. I, Paul and VHR are proud to fly the flag for Great Britain in over 52 countries across the world. International Trade is vitally important to VHR accounting for 75% of our business enabling us to create work for over 12,000 people in the UK and overseas and generating more than £190 Million in exports since 2003”

The chairman of the judges of the Global Business Excellence awards said: “Congratulations to UK-based international technical recruitment specialists VHR for responding to the uncertainty around Brexit by targeting new overseas markets outside Europe, enabling it to report that 75% of business is international. The company’s strategy to take on staff with second languages with a number coming from outside the UK was a wise move that has boosted overseas contract placements and helped when setting up onsite offices. VHR has generated significant foreign revenue and helped to position the UK as an expert in technical recruitment.

By supporting staff to develop their careers and through the provision of a marvellous line-up of benefits, VHR has established itself as a great place to work. This is a company that values and rewards staff for their hard work. All staff are fully supported with training and individual development plans to reach their full potential. VHR’s ethical recruitment policy is particularly inspiring for its commitment to equality. VHR’s people policy is the backbone of the company helping it to achieve dazzling success and win a host of prestigious awards.”
