As Glu Recruit celebrates eight wonderful years in business, we all took a minute to appreciate our Managing Director, Rob Shaw.
In 2016, Rob set out to create his own business, freeing up some of his time to spend with his family.
Armed with an IKEA desk, a laptop and his mobile, he launched Glu Recruit from the ground up. At that time, he never imagined Glu would be where it is today.
Rob’s vision was clear, to create a recruitment agency with a down-to-earth team that did things differently, prioritised clients and candidates, and stayed true to its local roots – which is exactly what he’s done.
Over the years, Glu Recruit has grown significantly, earning a reputation for going against the norm and doing things differently.
This unique approach has set the company apart in the competitive world of recruitment. While many businesses expand by adopting more corporate methods, Rob has maintained his commitment to personal touch, ensuring that we continue to stand out!
With Rob steering the way, Glu Recruit has been highly commended for both our commitment to people development and customer service as well as being shortlisted as a finalist for the Most Promising New Business Award.
Rob himself has been highly commended as Business Person of the Year, after being nominated by the team at the 2023 Barnsley and Rotherham Chamber Business Awards.
The whole team at Glu value Rob as a leader, a mentor and a friend – happy eight years in business, and here’s to many more successful years!
