A Note from the Editor

The tech event is barely over and preparation has already started for our end of year conference. We utterly love this event as we have a great mix of in-house/TA folk as well as agency recruiters. We’ve got a new venue too so no more sticky floors and strobe lighting. We are out of the nightclub and into somewhere with daylight and wifi!! Pop the date in your diaries! We will start thinking about speakers and the agenda this week so if you have any suggestions do email Louise.

Congratulations to IntroProtect who have been awarded the prize for Best Legal Service for Recruitment in the TAiLINT International Recruitment Supplier Awards.
