I am a determined, personable and confident Senior Recruitment advisor who loves to get things done. Skilled in building great relationships with my team, stakeholders and candidates I am always eager to provide a positive and well structured recruitment process. I am not afraid to challenge leaders in a respectful and constructive way to ensure the best outcomes are achieved whatever the end goal may be. I am naturally a big picture thinker but I don't forget the small details either and I enjoy working in teams with intelligent, future driven thinkers who positively challenge my perspective.
Eager to continue developing my natural leadership skills and love for being an advisor I am looking for a role I have the opportunity to be challenged in.

Built and maintained lasting relationships with hiring managers and senior leaders to better understand their current and future recruitment needs. These relationships have been built by my demonstration of good recruitment practices and results alongside my natural ability to form relationships with a variety of personality types and people with different backgrounds.
Established lasting relationships with industry professionals through networking events, ensuring solidification of our good company reputation and fostering long-term talent pipelines. Recent events have included the Women in Digital awards, Shecodes events and a Technology golf event.
