Principal Consultant
My background in recruitment
An accomplished Principal Consultant with over 10 years of expertise in recruitment, bringing experience in both internal and agency recruitment.
I specialise in both permanent and contract solutions, focusing on the infrastructure sector, with a particular emphasis on highways and water projects.
I can help you with
Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work as an Internal Recruiter on the HS2 project, which significantly enhanced my knowledge and expertise in large-scale infrastructure projects. Being on-site, I gained valuable hands-on experience working closely with Engineers, Planners, Site Managers, and Forepersons. This exposure deepened my understanding of the high demands of each role, emphasising the critical need to meet tight deadlines and the importance of seamless collaboration across departments to ensure project success.
I bring in-depth knowledge of technical and regulatory requirements, enabling me to build strong partnerships with clients to source top-tier talent for diverse civil engineering roles, including Project Managers, Engineers, Designers, and Specialists.
The best part of my job
The most rewarding part of my job is helping candidates find their dream roles. There’s nothing more fulfilling than making that call to let someone know they’ve been offered the position. I also enjoy staying in touch and following their journey as they settle into their new roles. Connecting with candidates is something I truly value, as it allows me to build lasting relationships and witness the positive impact of their career growth.
Let’s not forget the relationship with the client—solving their challenges and becoming an extension of their team. It’s a great pleasure to work with some of the biggest infrastructure companies in the UK, helping them navigate their staffing needs.
What I do when I'm not in the office
When I’m not working, I enjoy travelling around the UK in my campervan, Pauletta, with my partner and dogs.
I also take part in park runs on Saturdays and attend run club twice a week.
