About Meridian Charter Group

Extensive experience in talent acquisition and recruitment, having worked across both agency and corporate environments, including senior leadership roles responsible for establishing, managing and transforming recruitment functions.

My background covers the full spectrum of recruitment, from developing and implementing recruitment strategies to building functions from the ground up, reviewing existing operations and identifying opportunities to improve efficiency, performance and overall recruitment outcomes.

I have considerable experience conducting recruitment audits, developing Employee Value Propositions (EVPs), strengthening employer branding, improving recruitment processes and systems, and implementing practical strategies to reduce recruitment costs while improving candidate quality and experience.

Having worked extensively in the recruitment agency sector, I also bring a strong understanding of the commercial side of recruitment, including agency operations, business development, consultant training, performance improvement and client relationship management. This includes developing and delivering training programs designed to improve consultant capability, recruitment practices and commercial performance.

In addition to talent acquisition, I have held responsibility for diversity and inclusion, employee wellbeing, learning and development, and organisational capability initiatives, providing a broader understanding of the factors that influence employee engagement, retention and workforce performance.

My approach is practical and commercially focused, with an emphasis on understanding how businesses operate, identifying what can be improved and developing solutions that deliver measurable results. Having worked on both sides of recruitment, I understand the challenges faced by recruitment agencies and internal recruitment teams, and how to build effective, sustainable recruitment functions that support business objectives.
