Teamwork truly makes the dream work! And at Manning Global, we didn’t just celebrate 25 years of success… we celebrated it in style. Three epic days. Incredible people. Unforgettable memories. Our 25th anniversary team-building event in sunny Spain wasn’t just a trip – it was legendary!
From Croatia to Romania, Germany to everywhere in between, our global recruitment teams and EU back-office heroes – the ones who keep your projects moving seamlessly – came together to mark this major milestone. The result? Three days of laughter, camaraderie, music, and unforgettable moments that reminded us why the Manning Global family is so extraordinary!
Sun, Food & Unstoppable Energy
Spain was the perfect backdrop for our celebrations. Endless sunshine, delicious local cuisine, and an atmosphere buzzing with energy set the stage for an event that was as fun as it was meaningful. Whether sharing stories poolside, cheering on colleagues at karaoke, or simply enjoying the warm Spanish evenings, every moment was a chance to strengthen the bonds that make our team so exceptional.
Karaoke Nights & Unforgettable Highlights
No team-building trip would be complete without a little friendly competition – and a lot of fun! Highlights included:
Karaoke kick-off at Dempsey’s Irish Bar – where voices were raised, laughter was endless, and even the resort staff commented, “No one brings the party like your team!”
Saturday night encore – proving that once Manning Global starts a celebration, we don’t stop.
Shared meals, sunny afternoons, and endless good vibes – the perfect recipe for connection.
