Meet us.

The people behind the purpose.

Tara

Director
I started my first role in the training sector, joining a Training Provider in 2016 as a learner engagement officer. Not only did this shape my career, but was also where I met Hannah.

After this, I joined The CITB (Construction Industry Training Board) as an Apprenticeship Officer. I then moved to another Training Provider where I managed an AEB contract responsible for recruiting unemployed adults onto short courses.

I was made redundant during Covid, and as I was working with a recruiter to find a new role in the sector, I got a job offer for the recruitment agency itself. And so, my industry background became my biggest weapon.
Three years later in 2024, I decided it was time to start on my own, so I could focus on quality over quantity, and better serve the industry I love.
Outside of work?

I’m a dog mom to a miniature dachshund who is way too spoiled. I love to travel, and a New Year’s resolution of mine is to visit a new country every 2 months. Next on the agenda is NYC. 

In 2021 I was diagnosed with ADHD. If you follow me on LinkedIn, you’ll find me talking about ADHD and neurodiversity in the workplace.

 

Hannah

Director
For the last 12 years, I’ve had two careers. One with training providers in Sales and Learner Engagement roles. And the second, in recruitment for the Digital and IT sectors.
You couldn’t pick a more suitable background for your recruiter.
I know everything there is to know about training, apprenticeships, and government-funded training contracts. I love supporting hiring managers in the sector to get their recruitment right, first time.
I’m a big advocate of quality over quantity and anything digital or IT-related- I’m you’re woman.
Outside of work?
I’m a single mom to my 3 amazing kids and I’m building something they (and I) will be proud of. On a weekend, you might find me at a soft play, a park, or practising self-care getting my nails done, baking on a sunbed, or smashing out a body combat class at the gym.

Very occasionally I’ll replace the leggings/gym shorts and hoodie combo for something more glam and I’ll let my hair down. If you’re interested, my favourite cocktail is a porn star martini or a glass of prosecco 😂.

I understand how hard it is to juggle family life and a full-time job, so I am building something that can give me more freedom, work-life balance, and flexibility. This is something that I’ll also encourage my candidates to prioritise.

If you are interested in following my journey as a single mom with 3 kids building a business, follow me here.

Tara kept up communication through the whole recruitment process and made the transition effortless. She has offered me support and advice where needed and helped me develop the way I sell myself to employers (no more meek and mild)!!
C BenchBusiness Development Executive
I worked with Hannah as she managed two roles in our business, recruiting talent for 383, our busy production studio, and also building our candidate portfolio for our sister company IRIS. Not phased by the breadth of the role, Hannah was always highly practical, ever willing to tackle any challenge with a great attitude.

I always valued her versatility and professionalism in any situation, and she has that rare gift of bringing warmth and energy to any room, which is a skill for the ages. I look forward to seeing her be a positive influence in other organisations as her career progresses, I know it will be appreciated.

Hannah recently assisted our company in recruiting a Senior Product Manager. From the outset, Hannah demonstrated a high level of professionalism and dedication throughout the recruitment process. Hannah showcased an impressive understanding of our company's needs and the specific requirements for the Senior Product Manager role. Their attention to detail and commitment to finding the right candidate were evident at every stage. Hannah consistently went the extra mile to ensure a seamless and efficient recruitment process. My team is doing well and when I need to grow further, I’ll be back in touch.

Tara was super friendly and welcoming throughout the whole process - I would recommend to anyone who is looking for a new venture. She kept me in the loop and continually checked in with me until I started my new position.
N StevensonBusiness Development Manager
Having worked with Hannah since 2016, whereby she successfully helped me and Mr Tyre Ltd with our first dedicated apprenticeship recruitment drive, I would have no hesitation in recommending her for any recruitment, training or development needs.

She is personable and professional in equal measure, efficient and proficient. All of which resulted in a number of successful campaigns over a number of years, hopefully to be repeated in the future.
