HubGem Crowned SME of the Year at the British HR Awards 2025!

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that HubGem has been named the SME of the Year at the prestigious British HR Awards 2025! This incredible achievement, awarded by New Possible, is a monumental moment for our entire team and a true validation of the culture we've passionately cultivated.

The British HR Awards is a renowned annual campaign dedicated to recognising and celebrating the organisations and individuals who are truly committed to delivering an exceptional people experience. This year saw over 350 entries from a diverse range of organisations across the UK, making the competition incredibly fierce. To be named a Winner amongst such esteemed companies, from innovative start-ups to public sector heroes and global leaders, is an honour we hold in the highest regard.

Winners across various categories were revealed at a special celebration event in Covent Garden, London, hosted by the talented comedian, Fiona Allen. The judging panel for the British HR Awards 2025 comprised a distinguished group of HR leaders from prominent organisations across the UK.

This award, particularly the SME of the Year title, resonates deeply with the culture at HubGem. This recognition is entirely a team effort and a direct reflection of the incredible culture each and every member of HubGem contributes to daily.

Our commitment to championing a positive and supportive work environment stems from a core belief in the power of our people. Our CEO and Founder, Gemma Price's dedication to fostering this culture and prioritising team wellbeing is a driving force behind our success. The strategies implemented at HubGem have been specifically designed to create a committed, collaborative and thriving team – the very foundation upon which this award was won.

Nate Harwood, Founder of New Possible and a British HR Awards judge, aptly stated: "The need for an engaged and agile workforce is more urgent than ever, and it’s the outstanding skill, passion, and hard work of HR professionals who are meeting these challenges head-on. The British HR Awards are proud to celebrate these exceptional teams and individuals. Congratulations to all the Winners."

For HubGem, being named SME of the Year is not just an accolade; it's a powerful affirmation of our values and the dedication of every single person in our team. It underscores our belief that by prioritising our people and fostering a supportive, innovative, and transparent environment, we can achieve remarkable things – both internally and in the exceptional service we provide to our clients.

We extend our deepest gratitude to the British HR Awards and New Possible for this incredible honour.
