Following a record-breaking 2025, when VHR secured four wins at the TIARA Recruitment Awards, including Recruitment Leader of the Year, The Innovation Award, The Temporary Recruitment Business of the Year and The International Recruitment Company of the Year, we are proud to once again receive recognition across such a broad range of categories.

The Growth Staffing Company of the Year

Recognising Excellence Across Staffing and Talent Solutions

Being shortlisted across eleven categories is an important achievement for VHR because the nominations recognise many different areas of our business.

The Candidate Experience Award focuses on how candidates are sourced, managed and supported, while the Client Service Award celebrates organisations that build strong relationships and deliver effective solutions for their clients. The 2026 awards also recognise technology, sustainable business growth, international staffing and long-term partnerships.

For VHR, providing a high-quality recruitment service means looking at the complete experience. We work to understand the requirements of technical businesses while supporting candidates and contractors throughout their careers and assignments.

Our specialists recruit internationally across Aerospace & Aviation, F1 & Automotive, Engineering & Manufacturing, Civils & Infrastructure, Defence & Security, Renewables & Energy and Marine, helping organisations access the technical skills they need while connecting candidates with career opportunities around the world.

Growth, Technology and International Recruitment

Our shortlists for The Best Use of Technology & Innovation Award, The Growth Staffing Company of the Year, The Grant Thornton Specialist Staffing Company of the Year and The Giant Group International Staffing Business of the Year reflect several areas that continue to be important to VHR.

The TIARA Best Use of Technology & Innovation Award recognises organisations using technology to solve business challenges and deliver measurable improvements. The Growth Staffing Company of the Year, meanwhile, focuses on sustainable growth across areas including sales, people and client relationships.

Technology continues to change recruitment, but strong relationships and specialist knowledge remain essential. VHR combines technology and recruitment expertise to help make processes more efficient while maintaining personal communication with clients, contractors and candidates.

International recruitment is another core part of our work. We support businesses that need specialist technical talent across global markets, helping them navigate complex recruitment requirements and build workforces capable of supporting both short-term projects and long-term growth.

Businesses looking for specialist technical recruitment support can learn more about our Engineering & Manufacturing recruitment services.

Celebrating Our People and Partnerships

The 2026 shortlist also recognises the people and partnerships behind VHR.

The Long-Term Partnership Award celebrates relationships that have delivered sustained success and continuous improvement for at least five years, while The Back-Office Team of the Year recognises the contribution made by operations and support teams to organisational growth, innovation and performance.

These areas are particularly important within international technical recruitment. Successful placements depend on much more than finding candidates. Compliance, mobilisation, onboarding, payroll, communication and ongoing contractor support all play a part in delivering an effective workforce solution.

Our shortlist for The Best Company To Work For is also recognition of the importance we place on developing and retaining our own specialists. Building a strong internal team enables us to continue providing knowledgeable, responsive recruitment services to clients and candidates around the world.

Supporting Technical Careers and Hiring

For candidates, recognition in The Candidate Experience Award reflects the importance of receiving clear communication, guidance and support throughout the recruitment process.

For employers, the Client Service, Long-Term Partnership and Contingent Workforce Solutions shortlists highlight the value of working with a recruitment partner that understands both immediate hiring requirements and longer-term workforce challenges.

Whether you are looking for your next technical role or need to strengthen your workforce, VHR's recruitment specialists provide support across contract, permanent and managed recruitment solutions.

Looking Ahead to the 2026 TIARA Awards

We are extremely proud to be shortlisted across eleven categories and would like to thank our employees, clients, contractors and candidates for their continued support.

The winners of the 2026 TIARA Staffing & Talent Solutions Awards are scheduled to be announced on Thursday 15 October 2026.

We look forward to celebrating alongside the other shortlisted organisations and continuing to deliver high-quality global technical recruitment and Talent Solutions throughout 2026 and beyond.
