Celebrating Hospitality Excellence at the
Southampton Region Hoteliers Association Awards
BCC Recruitment Ltd – FIRE Group were proud to sponsor the Top Team Award at this year’s Southampton Region Hoteliers Association Hospitality Awards — an evening dedicated to recognising the incredible talent, teamwork, and dedication across the local hospitality industry.
The Top Team Award, sponsored by FIRE Group, celebrates the teams that consistently go above and beyond to deliver outstanding guest experiences. In hospitality, success is rarely down to one individual; it is the collective effort, collaboration, and passion of the entire team that creates something truly special.
A special mention goes to Rodney Burt, who had the challenging role of judging this category. With such strong nominees demonstrating exceptional teamwork and service standards, choosing an overall winner was no easy task.
After careful consideration, we were delighted to present the award to the fantastic team at New Place Hotel. Their passion, professionalism, and commitment to delivering excellent guest experiences truly stood out.
At FIRE Group, we understand how vital strong teams are to the success of hospitality businesses. As a recruitment partner to many hotels and catering operations across the region, we see firsthand how great teamwork drives both service excellence and business success.
Events like the Southampton Region Hoteliers Association Hospitality Awards are a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the people who make hospitality such a vibrant and rewarding industry.
Congratulations to the team at New Place Hotel and to all the nominees who continue to raise the bar for hospitality across the region. We’re already looking forward to supporting the awards again next year.
