Eagle Awarded Gold Mid-Market Company of the Year!
Professional Staffing Company Recognized by Ottawa Business Community
Ottawa, ON, December 2, 2011 – Eagle Professional Resources (Eagle) was honoured last night at the Ottawa Business Achievement Awards (OBAA) as the Gold Award Recipient in the Mid-Market Business of the Year category. Eagle was one of six prestigious nominees in this category and among 39 companies and non-profit organizations recognized as community leaders.
The award ceremony, co-hosted by the Ottawa Business Journal and the Ottawa Chamber of Commerce, recognized several local businesses and non-profit organizations not only for their business successes in the past year, but also their dedication to the community. Successful companies were chosen through a nomination and application process and then shortlisted.
This recognition comes just months after Eagle announced a successful fiscal year with significant growth surpassing $100 Million in revenue for the first time and earning over $1 Billion in all-time revenues. In addition, Eagle’s corporate philanthropy program remains strong and among the top in the industry, supporting various charities through corporate donations and staff pay deductions.
“It’s an honour to be recognized by our peers as a business that works hard not only to achieve our business objectives, but also gives back to the community,” said Eagle CEO Kevin Dee. “This award represents the result of a combined effort by the entire Eagle Team.”
