The journey

My journey in recruitment has taught me that success is about more than targets and figures; it’s about resilience, relationships and making a real difference. I started out in agency recruitment, working in a fast-paced, target-driven environment where I developed my commercial awareness, learned how to build strong client relationships and worked my way to becoming a six-figure biller. Since then, I’ve taken my experience into internal recruitment and partnerships, applying those skills in different environments and continually challenging myself to grow. Joining ELEC Training gave me the opportunity to combine my recruitment experience with something that has a direct impact on people's futures. Over the last 11 months, I’ve helped place more than 140 electrical trainees into employment, connecting people with opportunities to build careers in an industry full of potential. The journey hasn’t always been straightforward, but each challenge has taught me something about adaptability, determination and the importance of believing in what you can achieve. I’m proud of how far I’ve come, the people I’ve helped along the way and the relationships I’ve built, and I’m excited to see what the next chapter brings.
