Recruitment had become a real pain point for us.

Cath didn’t overcomplicate things - she helped us put a clear, practical hiring process in place that delivered immediate results.

The difference in candidate quality and commitment was obvious, and the hiring manager finally felt supported rather than frustrated.

We now have a solution we can actually build on.

Working with Cath feels like having a strategic hiring partner on your team. She doesn’t just help recruit; she challenges our thinking, refines our approach, and ensures every decision supports our long-term goals.

Her communication, encouragement, and expertise throughout the process have been invaluable in helping us hire the perfect people for our PR agency.

Cath has helped us set up our HR system, refine our job descriptions, write job adverts, and, in turn, grow our team by recruiting several key roles.

She’s professional, insightful, and genuinely great to work with.

I highly recommend Cath to any growing business looking for practical, hands-on HR and recruitment support.

Working with Cath has been a genuine pleasure from start to finish. Cath’s professionalism, energy, and determination were clear from day one.

What stood out most was her ability to understand our business needs, maintain clear communication throughout and ultimately source and secure the right people for key roles so quickly and efficiently.

I have no hesitation recommending Cath to any SME looking to benefit from recruitment guidance and support with hiring processes.

Cath brings genuine value, commercial awareness, and that all-important human touch. It’s rare to find someone who can balance pace and accuracy quiet so well.

From the outset, Cath brought a professional, warm and friendly approach that immediately put us at ease.

She met with us in person to understand our business, our culture and what we genuinely needed from a new team member. Rather than offering a traditional recruitment service, Cath provides an alternative approach that was perfect for us. She doesn’t put candidates forward or take over the hiring (unless this is preferred); instead, she guides you through the entire process with calm expertise, highlighting the kinds of oversights and considerations that are easy to miss when you’re close to your own business.

Her insights and experience helped us gain a clearer understanding of our team dynamics and what the role truly required. That perspective directly contributed to a much better outcome for us.

Throughout, Cath was consistently available, responsive and happy to talk through any questions or concerns. Her support from start to finish was invaluable, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any business looking for thoughtful, knowledgeable and genuinely supportive recruitment guidance.
