Leading with People: Conexus MedStaff Shortlisted for HR Excellence Awards 2025

We’re thrilled to share that Conexus MedStaff has been shortlisted for two accolades at the 2025 HR Excellence Awards:

• Rich Hughes, our Chief People Officer, is a finalist for HR Director of the Year
• Our People Team is shortlisted for HR Team of the Year

These awards, organised by HR Magazine, celebrate exceptional leadership, innovative strategies and meaningful contributions to people management. Being shortlisted recognises our commitment to putting people first,  both our back-office team and the thousands of healthcare professionals we place across the region.

A People-First Philosophy in Action

Our approach goes beyond standard HR policies. We focus on creating real support and opportunities for every member of our workforce. Highlights include:

• Wellbeing programs tailored for healthcare professionals working across shifts and locations
• Clear career development pathways for both healthcare professionals and office-based teams
• Flexible communication channels to keep everyone connected and informed
• Inclusive culture-building so all staff feel part of the Conexus family

The Team Behind the Recognition

While Rich’s leadership has guided us, this recognition truly belongs to our People Team. They are the advocates, problem-solvers and innovators ensuring every employee feels valued, supported and empowered to do their best work.

Looking Ahead

This shortlisting validates our efforts but also motivates us to continue innovating. It shows that putting people first in healthcare staffing isn’t just ethical, it also drives real impact for employees, clients and the patients they care for.

Thank You

To our People Team, to Rich and to every member of the Conexus family, thank you for making this possible.
