Essex Business Awards 2008

A very successful evening!

The Essex Business Awards 2008 took place on September 18, 2008 at Braxted Hall in Witham. This gala event was held to commend all the successful local businesses and was attended by over 500 guests, the Pursuit team included!

Pursuit are therefore delighted to announce our winners of 2008:

For the small/medium category, the award went to Colne Housing Society - Well done!

For the large category, the award was presented to TNT. This company also took the heralded prize of the event's overall winner, so congratulation on both counts!

Another successful open day

Pursuit Recruitment held an open day on Saturday September 27, 2008 between 9.30am and 1pm at their offices. The idea behind this was to enable candidates to register without the need to take time off work.

Here at Pursuit we endeavour to look at the needs of  both candidates and clients.

We advertised in the Essex Chronicle and distributed flyers on the day.

For further events, dont forget to keep a look out on our website.

Essex Business Awards 2007 - 19 September 2007

As you may be aware, Pursuit are a keen sponsor of the Essex Business Awards. In 2007 we decided to take on board the new category of Best Training Programme. We focused on this category as we are keenly promoting training for our temporary staff as well as our own team here at Pursuit, and are excited to have the opportunity to evaluate the levels of training available in the Essex area. On the night the winner of the Best Training Programme was awarded to: TaxiBus

Taxibus won this award in recognition of their successful efforts to create a national NVQ for Taxi Drivers. The first of it's kind!!!
