“I have worked in the recruitment industry for 12 years in both the UK and Australia. I wear many hats in my role as Resource Manager – I have overall responsibility for the Resourcing team at Ginger, provide resourcing support to the Financial Services desk, manage and maintain our candidate database to ensure it is used effectively, and take the lead on process improvement projects”
“I’ve been in recruitment for many years now, starting as a trainee, and working my way up to Director of an award-winning business. I ran my own successful small recruitment business for a couple of years, but wanted to get back into a vibrant office, and after meeting Angela, seeing how she ran her business and the great work she was doing, I decided to join Ginger, I felt it was the right decision to combine our experiences.
Business Development Manager
“I have over 30 years’ experience in the recruitment industry, both within the UK and Middle East, predominantly working in corporate accounts. Previously the Business Development Director for Reed Personnel Services and a National Accounts Director for Hays, I have specialised in devising and implementing innovative recruitment solutions for organisations in numerous business fields including industrial, technical and professional sectors.
Although I work across the board I would probably say that Regulated Financial Services is my favorite market as it is an exciting and ever changing industry….(go figure!)…. and I am responsible for Ginger’s Financial Services desk, along with Michelle, as well as the company’s business development function”
Chris Smith, Business Development Manager
“My passion is taking the time to understand people’s capabilities, dreams and aspirations so I can help place them into jobs they love, in places where they truly ‘fit’ … and have some fun along the way.
Our clients and candidates appreciate my personal approach, which is why it’s my mission to enjoy meaningful, long-term relationships with some of the best employers in the UK.”
Iain Russell, Head of Technical Recruitment
“After completing my Business Management Degree five years ago I decided to pursue a career in recruitment, I have since worked for two of the largest worldwide medical recruitment companies as Recruiter to Team Manager. Being offered a role at Ginger Recruitment as a Commercial Recruiter was an absolute privilege and provides me with so much satisfaction, both personally and professionally. I have assisted clients in finding their perfect candidates and enabled candidates to find their perfect role.

Oh and it helps if you like animals!! Anyone who knows me will tell you I’m a little cat/dog crazy!”
