  • Wizzdom
    Business Development Manager
    Wizzdom Jan 2009 - Jul 2010
    Liverpool, United Kingdom
    Wizzdom was a start-up company selling high-end hair-care products into hair salons across the North of England. I joined Wizzdom in a pure business development role to gain pure sales experience. I quickly gained traction in a very tight market and was able to secure deals with exclusive agreements across a broad range of businesses. It was a challenging role, due to the financial climate and a wide spread reluctance to spend money in retail. However by providing clients with the right support and education programs, I was able to open, retain and grow lucrative accounts and up-sell on an on-going basis.I left this role due to re-locating with my husband's work and starting a family.

My role was ultimately to generate new business and build and maintain relationships with both clients and candidates. My responsibilities included business development, generating, screening and interviewing candidates and preparing them for interviews, as well as offering consultative advice on interview techniques, CV writing, resignation processes and navigating counter offers. I was successful in bringing on board several exclusive contracts on both a regional and national scale.I was initially brought in to the business to build a new contracting desk across the junior accountancy industry covering roles such as Accounts Payable and Receivable Clerks, Assistant Accountants, Credit Controllers and Pay-rollers. I built this portfolio to a point where a new consultant was hired and the desk was split and I then focused on the permanent side. We experienced significant success in the industry, gaining many exclusive roles and having an excellent placement and retention record. We won several awards during my time with the business including "Top performing office" and "office of the month, through to personal achievements including "Best Consultant" (regional award) and regular "Consultant of the week" awards.
