Clinical Professionals Success at the Pharmatimes Awards 2010

Reading, United Kingdom, January 23, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The Clinical Recruiter of the Year competition celebrates the competence and ability of the leading recruiters in the clinical research sector. Since its launch, the competition has grown to embrace clinical recruiters from Europe, and with over 400 recruiters nominated, it celebrates the highest standards in the industry.

The competition is managed by a cross-industry steering committee of senior directors from the Pharmaceutical Recruitment sector, and judged by leaders in the clinical research field. Their role is to ensure the competition accurately reflects the current recruitment environment, and that it measures the most sought-after attributes.

Clinical Professionals secured two out of the seven finalist places, proving once again their dedication to finding the best candidates in the market, and providing an exemplary service and solutions-oriented ethos to all clients and candidates. Jenny Hatchett and Katherine Woof were shortlisted after receiving excellent online referrals from clients and candidates, completing the online assessments and then a challenging one-day assessment centre judged by senior figures from the pharmaceutical clinical research sector.

Clinical Professionals were once again successful in 2011, with the 1st place for 'Clinical Recruiter of the Year' going to Clinical Professionals Business Manager Jenny Hatchett, the first winner to retain a title at these prestigious awards.

UK Recruitment Director Sarah Goddard, who last night presented the award for line manager of the year, to the UK's leading Clinical Researchers, commented on the night:

''Clinical Professionals are extremely proud to be sponsoring this prestigious event for the 4th year running, which rewards and recognises the best in their field within the clinical research sector. It has been a fantastic night for us, with 2 finalists out of 7 for the Clinical Recruiter of the Year award, proving once again that our highly trained and effective Consultants go the extra mile, and are highly regarded by their clients and candidates. Clinical Professionals’ ethos of working consultatively with clients and candidates, looking for long-term partnerships, is critical in the Consultants’, and our, success. Jenny is delighted to have won this award for the 2nd year running, and although she could not be at the event, thanked the judges and all those that nominated her. Her excellence in this area of recruitment has certainly raised the bar for her peers, and set precedence for a tough competition next year.”
