Joined the EBP team in 2015

Proud moment

My proudest moment was a charity swim raising money for Cancer Research.

A garden with a wooden fence features various flowering plants, including pink, white, and purple flowers, alongside a green shrub. A hanging flower pot is attached to the fence—creating an inviting space akin to an HR executive search for the perfect talent.

Favourite era

If I could travel back in time, I’d travel back to the 1920s because it is portrayed as a time of great hope, change and excitement. Everything from the music and fashion, to architecture and literature of that time has had such enduring popularity that it would be great to experience it first-hand.

I have worked with a few head-hunters/recruitment agencies in my time, both in sourcing candidates and in being a candidate myself. The balance of professionalism and warmth which you brought to my experience throughout the process was outstanding, and I felt well looked after and cared for throughout.
