Contract Lead
I spent a decade working for a leading global IT recruitment firm specialising in temporary recruitment. Initially focussed on Financial Services but more recently on the eCommerce, Online & Retail space. For me It’s about working with a client as a strategic partner. Throughout my career the top pain I’ve heard from customers was staffing firms didn’t understand their business and so they would struggle to attract and retain top talent. I want to work with a customer to understand their business so I can partner with them taking a consultative approach in order to provide proactive workforce planning and delivery. Roles I cover - Data - Big Data, Date Science, Database Engineers etc.. Cloud & DevOps - AWS, Azure, GCP etc... Core Infrastructure - Servers, Virtualisation, Storage, Backup etc... Network & Cyber Security

It’s all about the longer term approach for her, every placement she has made has been an incredibly rewarding experience and staying in close touch with her candidates and developing relationships is something she prides herself on
