HRG UK, the UK’s leading corporate travel management company, has reaffirmed its pre-eminent position in the industry by receiving a prestigious Gold Award in the Buying Business Travel Diamond Awards – the second year in a row that the company has been recognised by the publication.

Two of HRG UK’s valued clients were also honoured by Buying Business Travel: Louise Harding of pharmaceutical giant, GlaxoSmithKline was presented with the Travel Manager of the Year’ award, whilst Barclays picked up the accolade ‘Travel Team of the Year’.

Launched by leading trade publication Buying Business Travel to commend outstanding quality and performance within the industry, the Diamond Awards are the only awards scheme to have the results voted for its readers (including corporate travel buyers, managers, arrangers and consultants – all of whom took part in the ballot process). The awards event, held at London’s exclusive Hurlingham Club, was attended by the cream of the corporate travel industry.
