2021 Events Programme
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT COVID-19:
We value events and consider them to be an important part of our Membership offering. However, we value the safety of our Hive community more. It is with regret that we have had to place our events programme on hold until we can meet again safely.
Let us assure you, we can’t wait to see your faces! When we can finally come together, it WILL be the soiree of the season.
Until then, we’ve developed a comprehensive calendar of virtual Member’s Meetings. These enable our members to group weekly to discuss hot topics and trends within the recruitment sector alongside identified experts.
