The region's best in-house recruitment professionals

Michael Wright from GroupM was crowned the best recruitment professional in Singapore at the Asia Recruitment Awards 2016, the only regional awards show which recognises and celebrates Asia’s talent acquisition and recruitment champions.

Commenting on the win, Angela Ryan, GroupM’s chief talent officer APAC, said: “Recruitment is our first connection point with talent and our innovation in this area reflects what we stand for and how we stand apart from other organisations.

“I am very proud of our exceptional talent acquisition team and that their achievements have merited such high recognition from the judges.”
