Ive worked in recruitment for almost 20 years both on retained and contingency projects, my early career was spent recruiting within FMCG & E-commerce on behalf of United Biscuits, Danone, LVMH, Coca-Cola, P&G, Heinz, Adidas, Muller, Nike, Costa, GSK placing roles within Sales, Marketing, Finance, HR and back office. Ive recruited across digital with specialisms in Marketing, Data, Technology and Creative and roles including Digital Marketing, Programmatic, Ad Ops, Paid Social, SEO, Data Science, UX, Product Management Digital analytics, Mobile with clients including Adobe, Google, Amazon, GroupM, Tesco, Cannon, Camelot, Publicis Media, NewsUK, Twitter, Adidas and Red BullComing from a recruitment background where you are encouraged to avoid HR and strike up relationships with hiring managers it always struck me how narrow minded that approach is and that if you are able to partner with HR and truly understand the impact the function plays in business then you will be provide a value added service that empowers both employ and employee.Throughout my journey I have worked with some exceptional organisations who empower staff to achieve their goals while understanding the importance of getting the right people in the right roles and Ive been acutely aware how challenging that can be and more importantly the consequences of getting it wrong, only through truly understanding the USP's and embracing the values will you stand out from the crowd and attract the calibre of employee who displays the same attributes that ensure that you are not another notch on the ever revolving recruitment door.
