Cheryl Hutchinson, Transactional Manager
The rural location presented a naturally limited candidate pool, making a targeted approach essential. The client was open to candidates with transferable experience, but with a small, close-knit team, finding the right cultural fit was critical. A clear understanding of the brief and the client’s values was therefore key to identifying candidates who would be both capable and a strong long-term fit for the business.
We took a creative, targeted approach to generate fresh interest in the role, carefully assessing each candidate for both cultural fit and genuine enthusiasm for the opportunity. Our established network across North Yorkshire proved invaluable, helping us uncover two strong candidates whose finance experience exceeded the client’s initial expectations.
Having known Gemma for a number of years, I knew that she would take not only a professional approach to this but she would also think outside the box in terms of personality fit.
Willow demonstrated a fantastic understanding of what we needed which was evident in the CV’s that were sent to us to review for the position. They did the groundwork and were spot on with exactly what we wanted and needed for the roles.
