Testimonials
I've worked with Zoe for over a decade, building out diverse teams across a variety of companies and sectors, securing high calibre candidates in roles ranging from senior specialists to Director level positions. I particularly appreciate Zoe's approachability, pace, no-nonsense commerciality and capability as a trusted critical friend. Zoe is highly adept at not only meeting a demanding recruitment brief, but makes it her business to gain a deep and nuanced understanding of cultural fit, to ensure that more often than not I'm presented with a very small number of highly credible candidates.
