My role here at Reflect Recruitment Group is to source staff for both Temporary and Temporary to Permanent roles in our Newark office for the Nottinghamshire area. Sourcing commercial office based staff to a wide mixture of businesses. I get to know my Clients and Candidates so I can find the right fit for them. This ensures I can move quickly to meet my clients needs in a fast and professional manner. I work with most business types providing a quality service not matter the length of time they require someone from a couple days to an on going contract. I enjoy networking and promoting our business to new clients both face to face and over the telephone. Keeping in touch with current clients as well to make sure I know their business so when it comes to their next vacancy I can keep the high standards in customer service they except. It is such a rewarding role and no two days are the same.

I started at the Nottingham Post as an Administrator. I would input recruitment adverts on to the system to then be advertised online. After a few months in the role I decided I would be more suited to the sales side and applied for a telephone sales role. I really missed the customer interaction & was thrilled to take the role when I was offered it. In the telephone sales role I mainly looked after Estate Agents & Letting Agents - Selling the advertising space, putting together their adverts with the studio & proofing their adverts back to them for approval. I developed strong relationships with my clients over the years. The publications I worked on were daily, weekly & monthly. I enjoyed the contact with my clients. Watching them grow & evolve from lots of boxes on a page to brand advertising as the online property portals began to grow. This was an ever changing environment & I enjoyed the challenges it brought. I progressed into a Fields sales role this really helped to grow my skills base & by seeing a clients business & the day to day workings first hand it really worked wonders to help them even more & come up with suggestions for them to market themselves. Showing the how to stand out from their competitors by giving them different options to work with. This helped when I moved on to the retail section where I was working with a much more diverse client base. One of my strongest skills is being able to talk to people from all levels & backgrounds. This certainly help within this sector. During my time at The Nottingham Post I would speak to people from Landlords with one property to long standing multi branch Estate Agents. It was a fast paced environment working with a wide variety of publications with daily deadlines & monthly targets to work towards. I really enjoyed my time with the company and I think it taught me a lot. I left with a lot of skills that I know will benefit me for years to come.

Selling computer software to the general public. Different packages. Found myself within the top few sellers and progressed to a higher campaign. I needed to have good technical knowledge to sell the products
