RUSSELL Taylor Group is in line for a major award at an event that celebrates the best of the UK's recruitment professionals.

The technical recruitment company, with its headquarters in Bromborough, Wirral, has been named as a finalist in the Recruiter Awards 2016 and will compete against some of the country's biggest recruitment businesses for the title of Recruitment Agency of the Year (up to 75 employees).

The annual awards recognise the hard work, innovation and commitment to pushing the boundaries of excellence within the profession.

Peter Russell, chairman of Russell Taylor Group, said: “To be a finalist in these, the biggest awards in the recruitment sector in the UK, is an amazing achievement.

“Last year we celebrated a major milestone in our history by reaching our 10th anniversary of trading.

“It's been a roller-coaster of a journey for a business that started up in a spare bedroom “office” to become the multi-million pound national and international entrepreneurial success it is today.

“To be recognised by judges and named as a finalist in these major awards is testament to our commitment to excellence and to operate as business with unparalleled customer and candidate service.”

Winners of the Recruiter Awards 2016 will be announced at an awards gala evening at London's Grosvenor House Hotel on May 4.
