With over 13 years of experience in recruitment and talent acquisition, I am passionate about finding and retaining the best and brightest talent for Hastings Direct, a leading UK insurance provider. My core competencies include interviews, screening, sourcing, and account management. As a recruitment executive for the Chief Information Office (CIO), I work closely with the IT and digital teams to understand their needs and deliver high-quality candidates. I am driven by the mission and values of Hastings Direct, and I enjoy being part of a diverse and collaborative team that strives for excellence and innovation.In my previous role as a recruitment consultant, I specialized in the engineering sector, covering industries such as aerospace, automotive, F1, renewables, power, energy, and nuclear. I leveraged my intimate knowledge of the market and the required skillsets to provide consultative support for engineering businesses, offering both permanent and contract solutions. I partnered with my clients to understand their goals and challenges, and sourced, screened, and placed candidates that matched their criteria and expectations. I also built new relationships with commercial, transport, and FMCG clients, while maintaining existing and heritage partners.
