Interim Management Company Russam GMS Add to Their Haul of Awards by Securing the Coveted "Investors In People, Gold" Award

LONDON, September 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Not satisfied with "Best Interim Management Provider" at the 2011 Recruitment Consultant Industry Awards and "Best Interim Management Recruitment Agency" at the Recruiter Awards 2010, Russam GMS have added to their list of accolades.

Exceeding the Investors in People "Standard" requirement by over 126 points ensures a Gold award for the Interim Recruitment agency.

Chairman Charles Russam established Russam GMS in 1982 when he spotted a gap in the recruitment market for placing management-level executives. Since then, the company has always retained a strong share of the Interim Management market. Charles Russam welcomed the award, commenting:

"The award recognized our long-term business success in a very competitive marketplace, as well as the professionalism and expertise of employees and our high levels of service and satisfaction."

Jason Atkinson, Managing Director of the Russam GMS "Private Sector" Division is equally thrilled by the success and points out the key to the award lies behind the excellent team at Russam GMS. As recruiters, you would expect their own staff to be of the highest quality and the resulting awards would seem to agree.

Jason outlines the company mantra "Reliable, Innovative, Open and Thorough"; it is simple enough, but is there more owing to the long-term success of Russam GMS? Jason is currently the Chairman of the Interim Management Association and recently completed a climb of Mount Kilimanjaro for the MS Society, so he is clearly a man who enjoys a challenge.

This year, the Russam GMS have opened a new London office and have just taken on new staff to bolster their thriving Charities and Not for Profit Division. Such news is a welcome reminder that despite the difficult financial climate, there are still success stories out there.

The Interim Management industry has gone from strength to strength and becoming an increasing popular option in the current financial climate. Organisations often need to be maneuverable and need to rely on trusted individuals to oversee and implement change. These key skills are sometimes not present from within the organisation itself and that's when Interim Management Agencies like Russam GMS step in. They are able to provide high-quality staff with proven track records who can make fast decisions free from the shackles of office politics. They are usually experienced decision-makers and are the perfect candidates for restructure, transformation and project management.

The future is looking very bright for Russam GMS and their database of 12,000 skilled executives. The only question remaining: which award are they targeting next?
