The Apprentice Employer of the Year category celebrates organisations who provide fantastic opportunities for apprentices in their organisation to learn, develop and progress. They understand that the apprentices of today have the potential to be the business leaders of tomorrow. Jane Schumm, said: “We are extremely proud of our apprenticeship programme and the success it brings to both individuals and to our organisation as a whole. “Winning the IIP Apprentice Employer of the Year award 2018 was yet another highlight of a fantastic year at Hays Travel, which included being recognised in the Sunday Times 100 Best Companies to Work For list and achieving our £1 billion sales landmark.” Paul Devoy, Head of Investors in People, said: “This year’s Investors in People Awards were an inspirational celebration of best practice across our international community. I commend Hays Travel for their dedication to improving the quality of work for their employees.”
