On 26th September in London at the prestigious JW Marriott Grosvenor House, Connex Education Partnership returned to the UK’s largest recruitment event, ‘The Recruiter Awards 2024’, with our most nominations to date.
After being shortlisted for four awards at the 2024 Recruiter Awards, we are delighted to confirm that Connex Education took home not one but two awards: Best Public/Third Sector Recruitment Agency and Recruitment Agency of the Year (50-99 Employees)!
These awards highlight the dedication and effort our colleagues invest daily to deliver the best possible service to our clients and candidates. We would also like to thank our fantastic clients and candidates; without them, Connex Education wouldn’t be the company it is.
What the judges had to say...
RECRUITMENT AGENCY OF THE YEAR – 50-99 EMPLOYEES 2024
“They support not only their own staff, candidates and wider community but also the ultimate stakeholders: pupils. Social value is clearly central to their offering, through the training given through the in-house Connex Academy to allow workers from other sectors to start a career in education, to paying their staff fairly and operating by the principle that people have basic fundamental rights and access to an excellent education, irrespective of postcode.
Their driving motivation is to ‘Do the right thing simply because it is the right thing to do’ and, clearly, that does not conflict with building a successful business at the same time.”
BEST PUBLIC/THIRD SECTOR RECRUITMENT AGENCY 2024
“A strong example of how to upskill, provide needed qualifications, enhance successful onboarding process with your own development manager, and overall discuss with the sector to understand their skills needs. The agency really struck the judges as one that cares!”
A message from our CEO - Paul Broderick
“It’s amazing to be recognised by your industry peers and to win both the Best Public Sector Recruiter and Best Recruitment Company (under 99 staff) awards was a real honour
In our 25 year history we’d never entered an award category until last year when we won Best Temporary Agency 2023, and just like that we were hooked!”
“I want to give a massive shout-out to everyone in Team Connex. You rock!”
Thank you to the Recruiter Awards for a night we will never forget, we will be back for 2025!
