Award winning recruitment agency hooray celebrates 5th birthday
Gloucestershire’s ethical recruitment agency is celebrating its fifth birthday by winning a prestigious business award.
Hooray, an award-winning Gloucestershire recruitment agency with an ever-growing national reach, has won the Small Business of the Year at the SoGlos Gloucestershire Business Award (SGGBA) 2022. Consequently, they have two reasons to celebrate this month.
As a result the SGBAA Awards, considered the pinnacle in the local business calendar, was a night to remember. Certainly, it was an unforgettable evening showcasing the very best of business in Gloucestershire.
As SoGlos writes, “The Awards set out to recognise and celebrate innovative start-ups through to the top 100 businesses in the county, boldly shaking up the traditional awards format with a fresh new approach.”
Winners of SGGBA 2022 gather on stage to take the applause at the University of Gloucestershire Business School on the SoGlos website.
The 2022 SoGlos award winners were announced on Thursday, 20th October 2022. Over 300 guests assembled for the invitation-only evening at the University of Gloucestershire Business School’s Oxstalls campus in Gloucester for the awards ceremony and networking event. Thus, everyone came together to celebrate the successes of Gloucestershire’s best businesses.
We want to give a special mention to the co-headline sponsors, Hazlewoods and Willans LLP solicitors, for making the evening possible.
Also, a further mention and thanks to BBC presenter and reporter Steve Knibbs for hosting the awards.
Moreover, Ryan Hancock, a director in Hazlewoods’ corporate services team, said: “The SoGlos Gloucestershire Business Awards has provided a great opportunity for businesses to come together and celebrate their successes.
In what is looking like further challenging times for us all ahead, it is important to remember that we have a strong and supportive business community in Gloucestershire that is worth celebrating”.
