After attending university studying both Marketing and Business, I started a career in sales, initially gaining invaluable experience as an estate agent. It soon became apparent that my future career was in a different sector. Moving to recruitment, particularly within the technology industry, proved to be a great decision. With nearly five years of specialisation in contract recruitment, I have thrived in this fast passed dynamic environment.
Outside of work, I am an avid sports enthusiast, enjoying football, tennis, and golf. I cherish the time spent with friends and family and am passionate about exploring new cultures and destinations, with a goal to travel more extensively in the future. At home, life is equally lively, thanks to the joyful company of two bunnies I care for with my girlfriend.

Hi my name is Kayleigh and I am delighted that after weeks and nearly months of trying to find work within my qualified field, I have finally secured a job with the wonderful help of Laurence. I had my first phone call with Laurence back in early/ mid October when he reached out to me following my application for a Senior Analyst role.Laurence has been great from start to finish, he's helped me with interview prep and any questions I've had along the way. Laurence has been very reassuring and always kept me in the loop throughout the whole hiring process. Especially coming up to weekends if there were any updates or even no updates, Laurence always checked in to put my mind at ease. The whole process of securing the job has been very professional and easy with the help of Laurence. I'd definitely recommend him if you require any help looking for work!Thanks again for al your help. Finding work these days is a lot harder than before so I appreciate your help with everything!
