As excitement builds for the 2022 Personnel Today Awards ceremony, which takes place at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel tonight (Tuesday 15 November), we showcase the organisations being recognised for their excellence in people management.
Now in their 24th year, the Personnel Today Awards celebrate the exceptional achievements of HR and L&D teams across a broad church of employers of all sizes and the suppliers that support them, organisations that put their workforce at the heart of what they do.
Our judging panel submitted their feedback and scores for each entrant, and from that, the 2022 Personnel Today Awards shortlists were created across 24 categories.
Organisations to make the grade range from Aviva, BT and Coca-Cola HBC, all the way through to William Hill, Yodel and Zest Technology. The full shortlist is below.
Personnel Today editor and chair of the judging panel Rob Moss said: “As we have emerged from the pandemic and employers face perhaps the most challenging labour market in decades, our judges were impressed by the creativity, innovation and hard work displayed across a highly competitive collection of entries.
“Congratulations to every one of our finalists – we can’t wait to celebrate your achievements.”
Over the past few months, Personnel Today has been profiling each of the entries in every category, highlighting the very best in the profession and its suppliers. Browse each finalist’s entry in detail here.
This year’s awards include a new categories for Candidate Experience and Talent Acquisition Partner of the Year and introduce new Workplace Culture and Performance Management prizes.
The ceremony takes place on 15 November 2022 at the prestigious Grosvenor House Hotel on Park Lane, London. The evening comprises a champagne reception, three-course fine dining menu, entertainment, the winners ceremony and an after-party.
