FROM NOVEMBER 2015'S RECRUITER MAGAZINE

Congratulations to our Investing in Talent winners! It’s rewarding to see so many recruiters stepping up to be recognised as top employers in their own right — and to see how recruitment is offering stimulating and rewarding careers to bright, motivated people.

We encourage you to make your voice heard in the consultation about extending the remit of the Gangmasters Licensing Authority to identify worker exploitation in additional sectors that rely heavily on heavy manual labour and, too often, trafficked workers. See our
story on p7 for more details of the consultation.

And on 18-19 November, we hope you will immerse yourselves in the fresh thinking spotlighted at our Recruiter Show at London’s Barbican Centre. We are delighted to present fresh and innovative voices from practitioners — agency and in-house alike — to share their disruptive practices, their learnings and insights with you, their peers.
Recognising the power of your own brilliance is crucial to growing up and standing tall as a professional — and as an industry. Equally crucial is listening to and absorbing game-changing ideas and being inspired to spin off your own unique solution for a different challenge, perhaps in a completely different direction. We’re proud to bring to you some of the most exciting thinking in a sector that refuses to stand still!
