Investing in Talent Awards recognise recruiters at the forefront of DEI

On Tuesday 30 January, the winners of Recruiter's Investing in Talent Awards 2023 were announced at The Brewery, in the City of London.

It was a fantastic evening with shortlisted nominees, colleagues, industry leaders and our judges who came together to celebrate the 2023 winners announced by our amazing host, comedian and actor Aurie Styla (pictured).
