We’re excited to announce that Eurobase People have been shortlisted for three Recruitment & Employment Confederation awards!

The annual Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC) Awards is the UK’s most prestigious event for recruiters. This year, the REC Awards will take place on Thursday, 21st November.

The team is delighted to share that we have been shortlisted in three categories. Nominations include:

  • Spencer Yeaman, nominated for Best Newcomer in Recruitment
  • Harry Cook, nominated for Agency Star of the Year
  • Eurobase People Delivery Team, nominated for Recruitment Team of the Year

Once receiving this great news, Managing Director Paul Springall shared his congratulations, saying:

"Naturally we are absolutely thrilled to receive these nominations, and a huge congratulations goes to all of the individuals involved in this success.

“The REC Awards consistently highlight the great and the good within our industry, so to be recognised in such competitive categories is something we should all be very proud of, especially after some of the challenges we, and the industry, have faced over the past 12-18 months.

“I’m sure it will be a fantastic evening and I’ve got everything crossed that we can make it third time lucky after coming so close to winning an award in the last two years!”

In the past two years, we’ve had two nominations for Best Newcomer in Recruitment, and this year, passing the buck and hoping for success is Spencer Yeaman. Spencer took to LinkedIn to celebrate his achievement, saying:

"It’s an honour to be nominated and it would not be possible without my great clients, candidates and of course team around me (who have also been nominated for “team of the year”) who have made this first year in permanent recruitment a real pleasure!

"I would especially like to thank Rees Price, Ian Ayres and Paul Springall for the support throughout this year, hopefully I will be able to bring the award home as testament for this!

Harry Cook, nominee for Agency Star of the Year, also shared his excitement on LinkedIn, saying:

"I’m incredibly grateful for this recognition, and although it’s often said, I truly have the people around me to thank for this achievement.

"Starting my recruitment journey in June 2022 was definitely a scary experience, especially coming from a background in carpentry.

"But the constant support from my team—Ian Ayres, Paul Springall, Jonathan Bone, John Curmi, Adam O'Keefe, and many more—has made this all possible."

As we prepare for the big night on November 21st, we remain hopeful that this year might be our time to shine! 

We have our fingers crossed for a successful evening for Eurobase People!
