Last week, we hit pause on the day-to-day and came together for our Big Boden Sports Day – and what an incredible day it was!
From start to finish, it was packed with laughter, competition, team spirit and a good dose of chaos (the fun kind). It was brilliant to see everyone out of the office, giving it their all, cheering each other on and just having a genuinely great time.
Out of Office, Into the Action
We didn’t hold back when it came to the events. Think bungee eliminator, inflatable volleyball, giant football darts, human caterpillar, total wipeout, egg and spoon and a full-on inflatable obstacle course.
Special shout out to Lichfield Entertainments for providing the fun!
There were some serious efforts (and a few spectacular wipeouts), but more importantly, there was loads of laughter. Whether people were racing to win or just trying not to fall over, everyone got stuck in. The team spirit was off the charts.
Refuel & Recharge: Curry Time
After a full-on morning of running, jumping and clinging onto inflatable equipment for dear life, we all came together to enjoy a well-earned curry lunch. Great food, good chat and a chance to recharge before the next round of chaos.
And the Winners Were…
A huge congratulations to our winning team – the Blue Team. Shout out to:
- Tom Wilkinson

You lot absolutely smashed it. Competitive, tactical and clearly powered by teamwork – a well-deserved win.

A big thank you to Brookson Group and Compass for sponsoring the day. With your support, we were able to make the event even bigger and better – and we really appreciate the continued partnership.
why we do it
At Boden Group, we believe that people do their best work when they feel supported, recognised and part of something. Days like this are about more than just fun (although there was plenty of that). They remind us how lucky we are to work alongside such a great bunch of people.
We know recruitment can be full-on. That’s why we put just as much energy into creating a positive, rewarding environment as we do into hitting targets. Whether it’s sports days, individual recognition, charity events or our annual conference, we’re big believers in making work feel good.
If you’re exploring recruitment consultant jobs and want more than just targets and KPIs, it’s worth considering what kind of company culture you’re joining. At Boden Group, our Sports Day is just one way we bring our values to life — through team bonding, recognition and genuine support. At Boden Group, you’ll get:
- The chance to build a successful career in a thriving agency
- A supportive and ambitious team around you
- Proper recognition for the work you put in
- A few inflatable obstacle courses and karaoke nights thrown in too
Sound like your kind of place?
