Frank Recruitment Group sponsors Women in IT Awards

Frank Recruitment Group has announced it will sponsor the landmark Women in IT Awards on 25 January 2017 in London.

Organised by Information Age, the award show will bring together over 800 technology tech leaders to recognise the outstanding innovation achievements by women in the IT industry with the aim of confronting gender imbalance in the workplace and promoting a diverse workforce.

Information Age has organised the event with incredible success since launching in 2015. This year’s sponsors include Amazon Web Services, Salesforce and more.

Influential women in tech leaders have been shortlisted to win awards in 16 categories to highlight the important value women add to the technology field. The award categories range from Advocate of the Year, Business Leader of the Year, CIO of the Year, Digital Leader of the Year, Innovator of the Year and Woman of the Year, to name a few.

Danielle Ramsbottom, Head of Account Management at Frank Recruitment Group, said: “As a recruitment firm we have seen first-hand the struggles our clients have to recruit a diverse workforce.We have also seen some of the challenges people face in the workplace, where they can feel as though they are one of those in a minority group of people, or are trying to encourage diversity but feel alone in their attempt to do so. Frank Recruitment Group is determined to help raise awareness and ensure we’re helping our candidates and clients, wherever possible, to encourage diversity in the workplace.

“We are proud to sponsor the Women in IT Awards alongside such an impressive group of women in technology, the organiser’s Information Age and the other companies sponsoring this important event.”

The awards will be hosted by Maggie Philbin, TeenTech CEO and TV presenter. 

This year’s Women in IT Awards will take place in the Great Room at Grosvenor House, Park Lane, on 25 January 2017.
