How I help small to medium sized businesses, with strategic growth advice and tailored recruitment solutions.
Some clients engage me for independent hiring advice. Others choose a fully managed recruitment search when they are ready to hire. Both services are designed to improve hiring outcomes — at different levels of involvement.
Small Business Hiring & Talent Advisory Session
Practical, experience-led advice for small businesses looking to improve how they attract, assess, and secure strong candidates in competitive markets.
This is a consultancy-style conversation focused on sharing insight from years of recruitment experience, helping you identify where hiring processes may be losing strong candidates, and how to improve decision-making and speed without compromising quality.
This is not an outsourced recruitment service. It is independent, honest advice based on real market experience.
What We Cover
Each session is tailored to your business needs but typically includes:
Candidate Attraction & Search Strategy
How to improve where and how you are sourcing candidates, including practical approaches beyond job boards.
Interview Process Efficiency
Identifying where hiring processes slow down and cause candidates to disengage or accept other offers.
Candidate Experience & Communication
How delays, lack of feedback, and unclear timelines impact offer acceptance rates.
Offer Process & Competitor Risk
Why strong candidates are lost to competitors — including avoidable issues like changing requirements or slow decision-making.
Hiring Due Diligence
How to better assess candidates beyond CVs to reduce poor hiring decisions.
Role Definition & Expectation Alignment
Ensuring job briefs are accurate, realistic, and aligned with market expectations before going live.
