What a blast we had at our end-of-year conference yesterday! It was a day full of reflections, recognitions, and some serious fun! We kicked off by reviewing our journey over the past year—celebrating the wins and gearing up to tackle the challenges ahead. Big shout out to our Perm and Contract teams for their stellar performance, our Talent team for continually adding value, and our US team who are absolutely smashing their targets! Despite the tough market, we’re proud to say that Energi People has continued to grow YoY and business is up from last year—a feat not everyone can say in the recruitment world these days. We dove into some interactive sessions focused on boosting our confidence and influence, stepping into the shoes of our clients and candidates to better understand their needs and challenges. This isn’t just about filling positions—it’s about crafting tailored solutions that truly make a difference. We always like to end the conference with recognising and celebrating exceptional performance! Congratulations and shout out's to Eva Szegfu, Kathryn Lewis, Joseph Sherman and and Jessica Dade for your well-deserved awards, and a special shout out to Sian Davies and Yasmin Baker for earning Special Recognition—your hard work doesn’t go unnoticed! And yes, there’s more—hit our targets next year, and we’re all jetting off to Lisbon! ✈️ We wrapped up the day back at the EP Pub, where darts, table tennis, and beer pong were the games of choice. Cheers to Alex Christie and Nick Rothery for swapping their office attire for bartender aprons! Thanks to everyone who made it such a memorable day. Here’s to another year of growth, success, and fun at Energi People! #EnergiPeople #TeamSuccess #WorkHardPlayHard #Engineering

End of an Era..... The legend that is Marcia Tottman retired from Energi People on Friday. She will be sorely missed having been an integral part of the company for over 10 years. Her laughter is infectious as is her sense of humour and candid (read blunt) way of explaining things! 😂 As is befitting we had a party to celebrate her time with us with some of her favourite things.....Friends, Family Wine and Karaoke! Marcia - we love you and will miss you! (Well until the Christmas party anyways!) and enjoy your retirement! #EPLife #Funtimes #Legend

How long is your hiring process... really?? We speak to hundreds of candidates and hiring managers across the Built Environment every month, and one thing keeps coming up.... The right candidates don’t hang around. In a market where talent is scarce and demand is sky-high, the difference between securing your top pick and starting the search all over again often comes down to one thing: speed. We know approvals can drag, diaries don’t sync, and “just one more interview” seems harmless… until your ideal hire gets snapped up by someone else. So let’s have it — how long is your process from CV to offer? Vote below and let’s see what the real picture looks like in 2025. Drop a comment if you’ve got a hiring horror story or a secret to speeding things up — we’re all ears. #EnergiPeople #Engineering #SpeedToHire #MEP

Ever noticed how we talk about neurodiversity like it’s something to “accommodate”? Feels kinda off, right? The reality? Neurodivergent minds bring huge creativity, focus, and problem-solving skills most people wouldn’t even think of. But too often, workplaces try to make them “fit in” instead of setting them up to shine. What if, instead of asking “How can we help neurodivergent employees adapt?” we asked “How can we build a space where their talents thrive?” Small shifts - clearer communication, flexible work setups, focusing on strengths - can unlock serious potential. This Neurodiversity Celebration Week, let’s not just talk about it. Let’s start doing. What’s one change you’d love to see in the workplace? Drop your thoughts below #NeurodiversityWeek #StrengthInDifference #EnergiPeople

To kick off the week - we decided for a bit of Monday morning fun - with a game of 'Matchy-Matchy' using Haribo sweets! The London office joined in as did our 2 lovely ladies in South Africa! We had to bring in a bag of Haribos and hope that someone else did not have the same. If they did, a donation to Step by Step Partnership Ltd would need to be made! There were a few new ones on me (there are over 100 different varieties apparently!). A few of the staff that technically 'lost' and need to make a donation. Although as its such a good cause, the rest of us decided to donate also! Am NOT however looking forward to an office full of recruiters high on Sugar later this afternoon!! 😨 #Haribo #Sugarrush #EPLife

Our Managing Director, James Mowat was in the Telegraph this weekend for his work with Step by Step Partnership Ltd. As a teenager, James faced immense challenges, but with the support of Step by Step, he rebuilt his life. Today, he’s the Managing Director of a global company and a trustee for the very charity that once helped him. His story isn’t just inspiring - it’s proof that, with the right support, young people can overcome even the toughest obstacles. Step by Step provides housing, life skills, and counselling to young people facing homelessness. Let’s support their mission and help create more success stories like James’.
