Our ISO accreditation also recognises that Turas Nua

What does this mean for our clients and employers?


The ISO 9001 standard has been introduced to enhance the overall experience of our customers.

 

For our clients, it means that we are committing to establishing greater trust, building the integrity of the company by improving our quality and feedback processes, and ensuring we maintain a consistent level of support throughout their journey with us. 


For our employers, we are improving the value of our service by ensuring we achieve a consistent standard of support, guidance and training for all our clients, enhancing the quality of candidates available for our employers' vacancies. 

We are extremely proud to have achieved ISO certification, which represents another milestone in our journey moving forward. We must say a big thank you to our implementation team who were integral to the successful delivery of the project.
