The Contracting Awards 2022 launches to recognise vital contractor service providers

Contractor service providers have been extremely busy, helping to support contractors every step of the way through what has been a challenging period. Since March 2020, when the PM Boris Johnson announced that the UK would go into national lockdown due to coronavirus, there has been a high level of uncertainty regarding how UK workers would recover from some very drastic measures.

Even to date, businesses whether they are big or small are still being affected by the pandemic, and this applies to contractors too, who along with IR35 reform amongst other industry challenges, have needed every bit of support they can get.

ContractorUK is excited to support The Contracting Awards 2022 as their official partner along with Hiscox, in its third year spotlighting exceptional contractor service providers. Unlike the Contracting Awards 2020 which was held virtually, this year the event will be back at The Grand Ballroom at the Montcalm, where The Contracting Awards 2019 event took place. The glitzy, black-tie event will be held on 16th June 2022 and is set to be an extremely exciting and meaningful night.

The awards will celebrate the providers who go the extra mile for contractors and excel in 14 specific categories of service, including the Best Contractor Accountancy, Best Umbrella Company, Best Contractor Recruitment Agency, Best Banking Provider and more.

The awards will be judged by a panel of industry experts, including Seb Maley of Qdos Contractor, employment status expert Rebecca Seeley Harris and a selection of other industry specific experts specialising in various fields such as recruitment and tax.

Anthony Sherick, Director of ContractorUK and head judge in the Contracting Awards 2022 had this to say: “There are so many service providers who are working tirelessly to support contractors through their current situations, from accountants and recruiters to insurers and mortgage advisers. We are proud to recognise and celebrate the excellent work that these companies and individuals are doing for contractors by bringing the awards event back for 2022”.

The awards night will begin with an exclusive drinks reception, followed by a sumptuous three-course dinner and entertainment in The Montcalm’s Grand Ballroom, with the winners to be announced later in the evening.

The deadline for entries will be on January 28th 2022, so there is plenty of time to enter and be part of this glamorous and entertaining night, celebrating the best of the best in the contracting industry.
