Summary
I have over 20 years of working experience and 17 years working in recruitment, which has given me a unique perspective into building and maintaining strong sustainable relationships with both, internal and external HR departments, my clients and sourcing quality candidates.
I'm an intuitive person with a passion for people, I'm the type of person that always gives my full effort and dedication to any task put before me. My work ethic is of an extremely high standard and is my motivation to ensure success in anything I do. I can be relied upon to prioritize competing deadlines, effectively coordinate time and resources and drive through tasks to completion while ensuring the best possible candidates are sourced and put forward for selection. My experience and knowledge of the recruitment industry and my passion for people have benefited every company I have had the pleasure of working for and I am looking forward to continuing to be of benefit to my next employer.
