After earning a BA (Hons) Degree in Communication and Media, I began my recruitment career over six years ago. I initially specialised in delivery across Data and Software hiring, where I quickly developed a strong understanding of client requirements and fast-paced project timelines.
Since then, I’ve carved out a niche within contract recruitment. My move to Skillfinder International has been a key milestone in my journey, allowing me to deepen relationships with our global client base while focusing on delivering high-quality, consultative solutions that drive long-term value.
As a Client Relationship Manager, I’m passionate about building trust, aligning with client goals, and ensuring every engagement feels seamless.
Outside of work, you’ll find me watching every Arsenal game, or on the golf course or playing league cricket, and catching up on the latest NFL action on a Sunday evening. I’m also a fan of travel and enjoy exploring new restaurants and fine dining experiences.
