Wigan Business Awards are excited to welcome back James Carman of 365 People Support as a returning Sponsor!
After sponsoring the Hospitality Award in 2024—drawing from his own background in hospitality management—James returns in 2025 with a new focus.
This year, he’s proud to sponsor the Employer of the Year category.
It better reflects the direction his business is heading in as it continues to grow and diversify across multiple sectors.
A Shift That Reflects Growth
James founded 365 People Support to provide flexible, responsive staffing solutions.
Since then, the business has expanded into sectors manufacturing, legal and IT companies as well as the core hospitality sector.
With that growth, his sponsorship this year marks a natural shift in focus.
“Last year, sponsoring the Hospitality category felt like a perfect fit because of my roots in that industry,” James said.
“As 365 grows into new areas, the Employer of the Year category feels more aligned with who we are today.
We’re proud to support great employers who are making a difference to their teams and their communities.”
Recognising the Best in Business Leadership
The Employer of the Year category honours businesses that go above and beyond to create positive, supportive, and inclusive working environments.
With a deep understanding of the importance of people-focused leadership, James is passionate about championing those who prioritise their workforce.
Nichola Howard Managing Director of Launch NW, Organisers of Wigan Business Awards said.
“We’re so pleased to have 365 People Support back on board as a Wigan Business Awards Sponsor.
I’ve enjoyed watching James grow his business over the last year. Sponsoring Employer of the Year is a logical next step.
His passion for people and commitment to supporting businesses shines through everything he does.”
