Jessica specialises in the Executive HR market across North America, focusing on leadership appointments in all HR and Reward disciplines. She has experience working with a wide range of companies, from Fortune 500 firms to privately owned financial services organisations.

Jessica started her career at a boutique HR recruitment firm in London, specialising in generalist HR recruitment for the financial services sector. In 2020, she transitioned to the Executive Reward market in New York, USA. Over the years, she has built strong relationships within her network of Executive HR and Reward professionals, supporting organisations ranging from listed global industrial companies to fast-growing pre-IPOs and niche hedge funds, trading firms, and private equity firms.

Jessica is committed to building valued long-term relationships and is passionate about genuinely understanding people and businesses.

Jessica is a great outdoors enthusiast. Though the only serious injuries she has incurred are due to great outdoor expeditions, her passions for travelling and experiencing the beauty of nature are unwavering, albeit executed clumsily.

As a city dweller, Jessica is obsessed with cataloguing restaurants. Food is her passion (and she loves categorised Google Maps lists).

Childhood aspirations

Honestly, I wanted to be a Spice Girl!
