Thorn Baker Group: Thorn Baker Group Named in

We’re proud to share that Thorn Baker Group has once again been recognised in Recruiter’s HOT 100 list for 2025, a significant achievement in what has been another challenging year across the recruitment landscape.

The HOT 100, compiled by Recruiter in partnership with Agile Intelligence, ranks the top-performing recruitment companies in the UK based on performance and productivity. To be featured again this year is not only a privilege; it’s a moment to pause, reflect, and celebrate the grit, determination, and adaptability shown by our teams.

Weathering the Storm

The sectors we operate in, particularly construction, have been under immense pressure. With economic uncertainty, shifting client demands, and talent shortages, we’ve been forced to consistently review, readjust, and refine how we operate. It hasn’t been easy, but it has been necessary.

Throughout this period, our teams have demonstrated unwavering commitment, agility, and an ability to remain solution-focused while navigating significant change. We’ve leaned into the challenges, asked the tough questions, and found better ways forward. This recognition reinforces that we’re on the right path, even when that path isn’t always straightforward.

Recognition That Fuels Momentum

Being named in the HOT 100 for another year gives our people the momentum and motivation they need as we move into a new financial year. With the upcoming increase in National Living Wage (NLW) and National Insurance changes, we’re already preparing for the next wave of change. But this time, we do so with the confidence that comes from being recognised among the best in the industry - again.

Looking Ahead

And we’re not slowing down, if anything, this recognition has only strengthened our resolve to keep innovating, keep adapting, and keep delivering results that matter - for our clients, our candidates, and each other.

A heartfelt thank you to every member of the Thorn Baker Group team. Your hard work and resilience are what make achievements like this possible.

Here’s to another year of building futures, even in uncertain times.

A Word from Our CEO

“To be named in the HOT 100 again is a true reflection of the spirit, resilience, and dedication of our people. Despite ongoing challenges across our sectors, the team continues to step up, stay focused, and deliver great outcomes. This recognition is well-earned, and it energises us for what lies ahead.”
