We had a special birthday surprise at our Sheffield HQ this week as we celebrated a milestone birthday for our CFO, Bruce Allen! 🎉

The team came together with gifts and a card filled with messages from colleagues across the Group to mark the occasion.

And knowing Bruce isn't usually a fan of surprises made it even more memorable! 😄

Wishing you a fantastic birthday, Bruce. We hope you have a great day celebrating! 🎂

What a fantastic evening celebrating the very best of the recruitment industry at the Recruiter Awards 2026 🏆

We're incredibly proud to see not one, but three businesses from the Nicholas Associates Group recognised on one of the industry's biggest stages.

⭐ Stafforce Ports named Highly Commended in the Best Client Service category
⭐ Ashley Kate HR & Finance shortlisted for Best Candidate Care
⭐ Nicholas Associates shortlisted for Best Engineering Recruitment Agency

While we may not have brought home every award, being recognised alongside some of the UK's leading recruitment businesses is an achievement we're immensely proud of.

These accolades reflect the passion, expertise and dedication of our colleagues across the Group, as well as the trust placed in us by our clients and candidates every day.

Congratulations to all the winners and finalists. It was a brilliant night of celebration, recognition and inspiration, and we're excited for what's ahead.

Giving back to the communities and environments around us is something we're passionate about across the Nicholas Associates Group.

Recently, colleagues from Olano, part of the Nicholas Associates Group, used their volunteering day to support Sheffield & Rotherham Wildlife Trust, helping to protect and preserve local nature reserves.

A huge thank you to Kris, Bryony, Ben and Olivia, who rolled up their sleeves to carry out essential conservation work. Their efforts will help ensure these valuable green spaces can continue to be enjoyed by both wildlife and the local community.

We're proud to offer volunteering days that enable our colleagues to support causes that matter to them, and even prouder to see teams making such a positive impact.

More than a golf day. A chance to make a real difference. ⛳

Our fifth annual Golf Day brought together clients, partners and businesses from across the region in support of Rotherham Holiday Aid, raising over £2,000 for a charity that helps local families create lasting memories through much-needed holidays.

We've put together a full round-up of the day, including the fantastic fundraising efforts, this year's winning team, and the incredible impact that Rotherham Holiday Aid continues to have within our community.

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the devastating floods on the Nepal-Tibet border 💙

We are saddened to hear of the loss of life and the impact this disaster is having on communities across the region. While we're relieved that all PHASE staff are safe, many families are facing unimaginable challenges as they cope with the loss of loved ones, homes and livelihoods.

As long-time supporters of PHASE, we've seen firsthand the incredible work they do for the region. They are already preparing to support the next stage of the emergency response, providing medical care, rehabilitation and reconstruction expertise to help affected communities recover and rebuild once search and rescue efforts have concluded.

The scale of the need is significant, and every donation can make a real difference. If you're able to support, PHASE has launched a dedicated Flood Appeal, with all donations going directly towards helping those affected.

Together, we can help communities rebuild and recover.

Let's rewind fifteen years - Adele was topping the charts. The final Harry Potter film was dominating the box office. And somewhere in Sheffield, Paul Brammer was starting his first day with the business.

Since then, both Nicholas Associates Group and the recruitment industry have evolved significantly. Paul has played a key role in that journey - joining our Board, helping grow and develop our Specialist Brands, and supporting the transformation of our Group into the business it is today.

To mark his 15-year anniversary, we sat down with Paul to look back on the defining moments, lessons and achievements that have shaped his career so far.

Congratulations, Paul, on an incredible milestone.

This month marks a significant milestone for Paul Brammer, Director at Nicholas Associates Group, as he celebrates 15 years with the business.
