Meet the team.

What is your position?

I manage the UK team but I also fill executive-level roles, above £100k salaries in the North West and London.

What's your story?

Prior to ShortList, I worked as an account manager for an ink manufacturing company. I found out about ShortList through a friend and came for a chat with Giles, thinking he was going to find me my next sales role! I didn't think about recruitment as a career before meeting Giles but came away from the chat thinking that I should definitely give it a go... and the rest is History!

Tell us about some of your interests.

I have a cockapoo puppy and go on lots of beach walks at the weekends. I live on the Wirral, but I am from North Wales, so I separate my time between those places. I LOVE food and white wine, so you can often find me in a nice restaurant in Chester or Liverpool. I love going on beach holidays, Mexico is my ultimate fave! I also enjoy swimming and going to the gym.

What are your dislikes?

Porridge and traffic.

What is your position?

I am a Senior Consultant and specialise in Power Platform.

What's your story?

I started my recruitment career in 2007 in the Industrial sector, I moved into commercial after 5 years and made the switch to Tech with ShortList in 2017 - the best decision I ever made! I specialise in Power Platform and Technical Product roles. I also manage a number of our larger accounts.

Tell us about some of your interests. What are you into?

I love to cook, my happy place is in the kitchen with music on and a glass of Rioja! I also have a 10-year-old daughter who loves to shop, so you'll often find us roaming around the shops of Chester followed by some nice food and hot chocolate/wine. I love to go on holiday, anywhere sunny with great food and wine, so Italy is a winner!

I try to make running a hobby with varying amounts of success.

What are your dislikes?

Artichokes and capers.

What is your position?

I focus predominantly on Development roles, but will also look at Testing and Data roles across the North-West.

What's your story?

I moved to Chester in 2014 to study Criminology from the Lake District and decided to stay after graduation because I love the area (and my mum said I couldn't move back in with her). I spent 4 years in Sales and Lettings before making the switch to IT Recruitment in the Summer of 2021, a great decision if I do say so myself.

Tell us about some of your interests. What are you into?

I have a keen interest in sports, particularly Football, Boxing and UFC. I'm also currently trying my hand at Golf and it's going terribly (if anyone knows how to stop shanking right on the driver please get in touch). In my spare time, I like spending time with friends and drinking Guinness.

What are your dislikes?

Hard to pick but let's go with: people being late, complaints about the temperature, posh chip shops, texting and Compare the Meerkat adverts.

What is your position?

I mainly focus on filling .NET Software Developer roles in Manchester and its surrounding areas; however, I have also confidently worked with developers who use alternative tech stacks including JavaScript and PHP. On top of this, I also have experience in placing candidates in numerous Support roles all over the Northwest. These roles can range from hardware support to working with cloud infrastructure.

What's your story?

My recruitment journey began in January 2022 after graduating from the University of Liverpool with a degree in English Literature. Prior to working in recruitment, I worked as a customer assistant in retail for 5 years and have also had experience working as a tennis coach. I pride myself on my written and verbal communication skills and have always enjoyed working with and helping others. This combined with my competitive edge is the reason that I decided it was worth giving recruitment a shot!

Tell us about some of your interests. What are you into?

I love playing and watching sports, in particular football and tennis. I am a huge Liverpool FC supporter and have played tennis representing my home county North Wales. I also enjoy socialising with my friends and listening to music, so you can expect to find me in the pub or at a music event on the weekend.

What are your dislikes?

Early mornings and hangovers - you probably won't want to meet me when the two are combined.

First and foremost, my passion is football, but I also love boring long walks with family, box sets and travelling.

Pigeon, message in a bottle, but it may be easier by email, phone or LinkedIn, all of which are above.

After several years in senior IT project delivery positions, I realised that my passion and skills were best applied in rapidly building and motivating high-performance teams. My move into setting up a Recruitment business in New Zealand back in 2004 was a huge career shift at the time, but I’m glad I did it, as not much else can deliver the excitement and challenges, as well as the rewards.

Now many years later I am working with a fantastic team in the North West and due to its success, have opened a second office in Austin, Texas.

What is your position?

I am the Marketing Executive here at ShortList.

What's your story?

I went to University to study Industrial Design. After graduating I fell into a bartending job which really allowed me to grow my personal skills of understanding people's behaviours and how best to solve problems. After many COVID lockdowns, I decided to combine these developed skills with my design background and pursue a career in Marketing.

Tell us about your interests. What are you into?

One of my main interests is to create and sell illustrations. My other main interest is going out to try new places for food and drink. This is definitely a result of working in hospitality for so long.

What are your dislikes?

The final series of Game of Thrones
