​Morson Group went home a winner at the annual Recruiter Awards 2021!

Morson representatives collect their award

​Following on from last year’s double shortlisting, Morson’s managed service solution took home the award for Outstanding Outsourced Recruitment Organisation.

The Recruiter Awards is the UK’s largest event for the entire recruitment community. It recognises outstanding achievements by agencies and in-house recruiters. Achievements in recruitment marketing and technology are also spotlighted at the event.

In choosing the shortlist forOutstanding Outsourced Recruitment Organisation, the judges look to businesses who have achieved outstanding success for their clients when conceiving, developing, and implementing recruitment management strategies, as well as demonstrating financial stability, profitability and business innovation. Notice was also given to how the recruiter enhanced the client’s employer brand and the added-value partnerships.

Our submission highlighted a relationship with a large construction client during the first coronavirus pandemic lockdown in 2020.

Having a managed service in place with the construction client, we had visibility of their entire contractor population, meaning we could engage with them efficiently about the overnight impact of the UK lockdown. We played an unequivocally vital role in the communications and processes that were put in place to close sites with almost immediate effect. Within 48 hours of the lockdown announcement, every contractor had been informed of their updated policy and had exited the site, which we made clear was for their own protection and in compliance with the law.

Over the year, as restrictions ebbed and flowed, we worked synonymously with the client to remobilise its teams to site and used our in-house reporting technology to inform the client of its contractor spend on a weekly basis, broken down by region, to enable it to manage costs for the wider business in a delicate financial climate. Having Morson available for 24/7 support also freed up valuable resource amongst senior managers who faced pressure in other areas of the business.

David Lynchehaun, Group Sales Director, said

The landscape is changing rapidly in today’s market, with clients more than ever looking for advice towards business excellence and added value. With this in mind, we’re absolutely delighted to have won this prestigious award, and it’s especially pleasing news for our members of staff who work exceptionally hard to provide the depth and quality of service which goes beyond transactional recruitment. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank both our clients and our employees for making this award possible.
