Scottish firm Enigma People Solutions has been voted top IT recruitment consultancy.

Enigma, which has offices in Edinburgh and Glasgow, captured the honour at the Recruitment Business Awards held at Manchester’s Hilton Hotel. Enigma is a specialist search and selection firm whose core business involves recruiting for innovative software engineering, electronic engineering and creative design companies as well as IT consultancies. The Awards were organised by The Drum Magazine and sponsored by the Daily Telegraph.
“It’s a tremendous achievement, especially for such a young and relatively small agency,” Director Ben Hanley said. “We were up against some of the biggest consultancies in the country.”

Hanley added: “It’s particularly satisfying because the judges were industry experts who based their decision on consultancies’ understandings of their clients’ needs. It shows that Enigma not only comprehends these needs but delivers on them to an exceptionally high standard.”
The award was accepted by the firm’s Special Skills Consultant, Steve Lorriman, who specialises in recruiting for creative and media clients and was the key member of staff involved in a client project summarised as part of Enigma’s entry submission. “It highlights the fact that we employ and develop very talented staff,” Hanley said.
