The hospitality industry came together last week for a truly inspiring day at the BII People Conference and National Innovation in Training Awards (NITAs) 2024, held at the stunning Porchester Hall in London.

As proud sponsors of the daytime conference and two prestigious awards during the evening ceremony, Hospitality Jobs UK (HJUK) was delighted to be part of such an important event celebrating the incredible talent and innovation within the hospitality sector.

The BII People Conference featured thought-provoking discussions around attracting and retaining talent, fostering inclusive spaces and creating nurturing environments for teams. It was a fantastic opportunity to connect with industry peers and exchange ideas on how we can collectively shape the future of hospitality.

In the evening, the NITAs showcased the very best in training, recruitment and people development, with standout winners including Brewhouse & Kitchen for their exceptional Best Recruitment Strategy and Online Training Platform. The night also honoured Phil Thorley CBII of Thorley Taverns with the Franca Knowles Live Your Life Award for his dedication to bettering our industry through charity work and support for colleagues.

Dawn Lawrence CBII, Founder and CEO of HJUK, said:

“Sharing knowledge, best practice and supporting the hospitality sector is at the heart of everything I do, and as a partner and panel host, I can confidently say that the BII People Conference is invaluable for anyone in the people space. Huge congratulations to all the finalists and winners on the night, all doing incredible things in the recruitment, training and development of their teams.”

A special congratulations from the HJUK team to all the winners and finalists - your hard work and dedication continue to elevate our industry. It was also wonderful to see Brewhouse & Kitchen recognised for their inspiring approach to recruitment and training.

Thank you to Steven Alton CBII, Molly Davis CBII, and the entire BII team for hosting such a memorable event. We’re already looking forward to next year!
