RBI's data services

XpertHR and Bankers Almanac won a trio of awards and the recognition of the data publishing industry at last night’s prestigious DPA Awards in Brighton.

XpertHR’s Job Pricing triumphed in two categories: Product Development of the Year and the ultimate and unexpected accolade of Outstanding Achievement of the Year.

Their Job Pricing service, which launched in autumn 2008, just six months after salary survey specialists CELRE became part of the XpertHR Group, was a runaway winner with the judging panel:

"The judges said that the Job Pricing interface was so good it gave them goose-bumps!” said group editor David Shepherd. “What a tribute to our web development team, above all, who took just five months to build a system that never fails to provide a wow factor for users."

Also taking a home a trophy at last night’s awards was BankersAlmanac.com who won Subscription Sales Team of the Year for the third consecutive year, beating strong competition from the likes of Yell and Thomson Local. The judges were won over by the phenomenal effort of the sales team who managed to grow subscription revenues by a substantial 18%:

“Winning this award is a fantastic achievement from the whole sales team,” said sales manager Simon Lemos. “The fact we have won the award three years running makes it even more pleasing as every year the competition increases.”
