Key clients include HSBC, RBS, TSB, The Co- operative Bank, Gatehouse Bank, Nationwide, Secure Trust Bank and Allica Bank.
The award entry included an example of an
exceptional case study that showed real problem solving, exemplary customer service and a passion for customer satisfaction in the Financial Services sector. Managing director of Recruitment Services at
The Curve Group, Kelly York, said: “We’re thrilled that our exceptional contractor recruitment services have been recognised as award-winning. As a business we’re incredibly passionate about providing the highest level of service to our contractors and are privileged to be able to engage with both them and our fantastic clients.”
enacted it’s likely businesses will halt investment in recruitment – to the detriment of growth. “We’ll continue to feed our QES results to
local, regional and national policymakers and urge the Government to realise all businesses are in need of support and encouragement at this time.” Northamptonshire Chamber’s QES is part
of the biggest and most representative survey of its kind in the UK. QES data is used by the Bank of England to inform interest rate decisions, by the Treasury to help formulate economic policy and by international finance institutions to assess the UK’s economy.
