Celebrating EMR's Success at the Tiara Recruitment Awards 2024

We’re excited to share the remarkable recognition EMR received at the 2024 Tiara Recruitment Awards! Shortlisted in both “The Specialist Recruitment Company to Work For (Up to £50 Million)” and “The Best Recruitment Company to Work For (£5 Million to £50 Million).” 

The judges provided us with some insightful feedback on what makes EMR a standout in recruitment— which we want to share. Here’s a look at the highlights and takeaways that underscore EMR’s strengths and our vision for the future. 

Strengths Recognised by the Tiara Awards Judges:

1. Client-Centric Approach & Strong Partnerships

One of EMR’s defining qualities is our unwavering focus on client satisfaction and partnership. Our approach goes beyond traditional recruitment, aligning our candidate searches with each client’s unique culture and strategic goals. The judges acknowledged our success in building long-term partnerships and a high rate of repeat business—a testament to the trust and loyalty we’ve earned from clients. They also highlighted the added value EMR provides, from market insights to advisory support, which sets us apart in the recruitment field.

2. Focus on Learning & Development (L&D)

EMR’s dedication to employee growth and development stood out, especially through our Academy, which takes a personalised approach to training and onboarding. By offering both behavioural and business-focused learning, EMR ensures that our team is equipped with the tools and knowledge needed to thrive. This emphasis on L&D has fostered an environment of high retention and long-tenured staff, creating a supportive workplace where employees are set up for success and continuous growth.

3. Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I)

EMR’s proactive stance on DE&I also caught the judges’ attention. With initiatives like blind CV screening to reduce bias, we’re building a recruitment process—and internal culture—that values inclusivity at every level. The judges commended our balanced gender and ethnic representation, especially at the senior leadership level, where strong female leadership was a standout factor. This commitment to DE&I demonstrates our dedication to fostering an equitable and inclusive environment for both our clients and our team.

4. Leadership & Financial Performance

Our leadership’s strategic approach and core values were recognised as key drivers of EMR’s ongoing success. External validation, reflected in strong Feefo scores, highlights client and candidate satisfaction, while our financial performance was celebrated as robust for a company of our size in a highly competitive market. These accolades affirm EMR’s commitment to excellence, integrity, and credibility within the recruitment industry.

Looking Ahead: Building on Our Success

As we move forward, EMR is committed to advancing our recruitment methodologies, DE&I efforts, and employee support structures to further enhance our impact for clients and our team. The constructive feedback from the Tiara Awards will guide us as we continue to innovate and grow.

Thank you to the Tiara Recruitment Awards for recognising our journey. This recognition inspires us to keep pushing boundaries and setting new standards in recruitment excellence!
