Director, Alistair Cook, last week collected
the prestigious award for HR Recruitment Consultancy
of the Year from TV personality Dara O'Briain
at Recruiter Magazine’s 2008 Awards for
Excellence.

Welcome
to the spring issue of Human Resourcefulness
which sees Digby Morgan celebrating two significant
landmarks.
Firstly, it was 20
years ago last month we opened for business.
The HR sector has changed beyond all recognition
over the last couple of decades and it’s
no coincidence that the success, growth and
dominant market position of our company is mirrored
by the rise of HR in corporate life today.
The second landmark surrounds our continuing
international expansion. We now employ almost
100 specialist HR recruitment consultants operating
on global client briefs in offices from London
to Sydney and have a new dedicated team in place
that is focused exclusively on exploiting the
burgeoning HR opportunities for clients and
candidates alike in the booming market of Dubai
and the wider middle-eastern regions.
A Softening Market?
There is an abundance of media speculation regarding
a possible downturn in the economy and some
in our industry comment on preparing for more
‘challenging’ times. However, despite
the current difficulties being reported as a
result of the global credit crunch we are still
seeing plenty of activity in the market and
are still predicting a great year with further
growth. There is a shortage of talent in the
HR market and there will always be great opportunities
for good candidates.
Once again I’d like to thank everyone
for consistently choosing Digby Morgan to source
HR talent and to make career moves. We appreciate
the belief that you have shown in our brand
over the past 20 years which has been key to
our success.
I hope you enjoy our newsletter and please do
come back to me with your feedback for future
editions.
John Maxted
CEO
