Business Leader and Recruiter across FMCG, Tech and Business Intelligence

Being honest, I fell into recruitment after pulling out of law school, working in retail, travelling the world, sitting on a beach, drifting about and generally not knowing what to do (not necessarily in that order). I'd always enjoyed bringing people together.. friendship groups, parties, events etc and I love talking!?! From my first moments chatting to individuals about their ambitions and joining the dots to businesses who could use them, I found my space and certainly my passion. I built on my early retail experience to quickly understand the broad FMCG industry along with its clear, bespoke disciplines.  With a firm belief that great business is about great people and that recruitment isn't a numbers game, I set out with a plan to build a brand with a quality over quantity service delivered via strong, information sharing working relationships. I'm passionate about building effective teams – I believe that people development and talent acquisition strategy are key in delivering corporate goals / wins. I'm proud of the team that have made Vertex Resourcing a household name, known for our frank, uncomplicated and efficient approach to attracting top talent across a variety of levels /functions.  Equally so of the fact that we represent many leading and rapidly growing brands and some of the most talented individuals.  I'm still very much on a journey, have plans to further grow the business in line with increasing demand which along with day to day running takes a fair bit of my time.

I’m at my happiest though getting behind a brand and a story, bringing it to life to potential candidates with a passion, energy and style that only I can deliver..

”it’s not what I am…it’s who I am” (I stole that)
