Smashing targets & staying people-first

Smashing targets & staying people-first

Any (honest) recruiter will tell you that July can be tough. With summer holidays in full swing and kids off school, hiring decisions get delayed and interview availability becomes more complicated.

But this month, despite the odds, our team smashed their target – and we’re celebrating the right way: by spotlighting the impact it’s had on real people.

It’s a bit of a taboo to talk about, but recruitment is a sales industry. Targets are part of the job – just like any other business.

But what matters is how you hit them. For us, it’s always about putting people first – building genuine relationships with candidates and clients, and delivering roles that truly fit.

And that’s exactly what happened this month.

Here’s what we achieved in July:

We filled a wide range of roles across multiple sectors. Here’s a quick snapshot:

Roles placed this month:

  • Accounts Assistant
  • Lead Generator
  • Part-Time Lettings Administrator
  • Part-Time Admin (x2)
  • Project Manager
  • Finance Assistant
  • Resource Coordinator
  • Compliance Manager
  • Head of E-Commerce
  • Sales Ledger / Credit Control Assistant
  • Fencer
  • Lead Fencer
  • Business Support Admin
  • Warehouse Operative X2
  • FLT Driver

In total, we placed candidates in 17 different roles across 5 key industries, with 20 new live roles now being actively worked on.

The Real Win? The People

Each of our consultants will tell you: hitting the team target was a great feeling – but helping candidates land jobs they’re proud of, and supporting clients through a traditionally quiet period? That’s the real highlight.

We’ve helped:

  • A returning parent step into a part-time admin role that fits her schedule.
  • A skilled tradesperson transition into a leadership role in industrial fencing.
  • Finance professionals move into new opportunities with long-term growth in practice.
  • Businesses fill roles they thought they’d have to wait until September to tackle.

 Bring on August

If July taught us anything, it’s that when you stay focused on people, success follows.

We’re heading into August with momentum, new roles to work on, and a team that’s more energised than ever.

To our clients, candidates, and the team behind the scenes – thank you. Let’s keep it going.
