The RAD Awards 2024
Now in their 34th consecutive year, the RAD Awards champion the very best in recruitment marketing and employer branding! Agencies in partnership with their clients, as well as in-house teams, enter their most innovative and effective solutions in talent acquisition, retention and employer branding, from the past year.
Entries into the 2024 awards are now closed and the shortlist has been announced.
There were 20 categories open for entries this year, including the brand new Visual Crafts category. You can view all of this year’s categories and criteria in the entry guide. Entries are judged by an annually updated panel of industry experts, before the winners are announced in January.
The awards ceremony will take place on Thursday 25 January in the glamorous Great Room of the Grosvenor House Hotel on London’s exclusive Park Lane. The evening will consist of a drinks reception, three-course fine dining menu, celebrity entertainment, awards ceremony and after-party.

Work of the Year 2023
Capgemini and Pink Squid’s Active Inclusion campaign used personal stories to bring together employee networks. The results were a ‘seismic’ impact on the organisation, winning them three awards at the 2023 RADS, including Work of the Year.
Our sister brand Personnel Today ran a free webinar with Capgemini’s Northern & Central Europe Talent Director, Bal Gill and Pink Squid’s President and Co-founder Manjoor Azizul, to discuss how the campaign promoted the activity of Capgemini’s six employee networks.
