MAY 2008: Eutopia wins at the Recruiter Awards for Excellence 2008

We are delighted to announce that Eutopia has won the coveted title of 'Best International Recruitment Firm' at this year's Recruiter Awards for Excellence 2008 - held, again, at the Grosvenor House in London. This ceremony is the pinnacle of industry recognition, with Eutopia again showing its winning ways in both its client and candidate-focused services.

This award, the highest possible international accolade in the recruitment markets, is presented to the international company that has "most impressed the judges with its innovation, drive and outstanding success in fulfilling and supporting its clients' and candidates' needs".

The judges commented that "Eutopia offered true support, which has been borne out of in-depth knowledge of local markets, knowing the pitfalls that can occur and recognising the importance of post-placement care.

Eutopia interacts with its clients wherever they are in the world, advising them as if they themselves were local. For example, for a new client based in the Middle East, Eutopia spent time on-site, getting to know its recruitment & cultural needs in order to solve the problem of extremely high turnover of key staff members. A revised recruitment procedure was recommended, along with behavioural based benchmarks for hiring staff - following which retention rates increased dramatically, and the client increasing its market share."

The judges also liked Eutopia’s commitment to supporting candidates across international, cultural & language barriers — before, during and after placement. For example, Eutopia has produced a series of relocation guides to ensure the smooth transition into a new country, as well as putting together an international support package, Global Assist, to provide practical support during the move.

Client’s testimony: “Eutopia are prompt and they never fail to follow up. They take the effort and expense to fly to us and meet face-to-face, and through their endeavours they are being proposed for work with us across various sites within our 15 operations worldwide. I’m delighted they have been put forward for an award — they deserve every success.”

Eutopia's Chief Executive Officer, Craig Coverman, is proud to explain:

"To receive this award in the face of such incredible competition is an absolute testament to the hard work, commitment and dedication of the team here at Eutopia. At Eutopia we pride ourselves in going that extra mile, researching the market and implementing fresh and innovative solutions to meet client need. The fact that this work has now been
recognised by the entire industry is very very special indeed."
