My names George, a 25 year old Midlander who’s very excited to be joining Kate and the guys at KAG Recruitment as an Account Manager after some time away from the industry.

I’ve spent the last 18 months of my life travelling around 10 countries across 2 continents, having lived in Vietnam for the majority of that time, teaching English to some very excitable high school kids. After an unbelievable experience, it’s now time to jump back into UK life head first and continue to build my career in recruitment.

Prior to leaving for New Zealand in June 2017, I had been working in recruitment for nearly 2 years, since Graduating in Human Geography from Sheffield Hallam University. I started out as a Resourcer, finding, screening and interviewing candidates for graduate sales positions nationwide. It was following this that I joined up with Kate at Grad Central, moving into an Account Manager position where I was dealing with both clients and candidates to place Graduates into a whole host of positions and industries, predominantly based in the West Midlands region.

Outside of working life, you will either find me on the rugby field, in the kitchen (more likely to be eating than cooking), out and about with friends, or binge watching the latest crime drama series on Netflix. As you can tell from above, I love to travel as and when I can, so weekend trips are a must. Amsterdam is next on the list! And if I can squeeze in a couple of gigs or festivals along the way too, I’m a happy man.

‘So what are you going to do for me, George?’ I hear you all shouting at your screen. Well, my focus historically has been candidate facing, and that is where I will be starting predominantly with KAG. I’m a friendly and personable guy who will be keen to get to know what it is you really want from a role and understand the skill set you will be bringing to the table, in order to make sure the fit is right for both parties. We aren’t here to throw just anyone at an opportunity without sufficient suitability, we pride ourselves on making that judgement early and being transparent with you from the first phone call. I’ll be here to provide guidance and support through the interview processes, to make sure you’re prepared to overcome any hurdles that will inevitably spring up along the way.

The same, of course, applies for our clients. I will be a reliable point of contact for any hiring manager to discuss your requirements, the existing interview processes or the progress of candidates 6 months into a role. It goes without saying that honesty and efficiency is the key to a smooth and successful recruitment process, so I feel that if we can mirror this on both ends, I can deliver the ideal solutions for you. And with a smile on my face whilst doing so.

I’m really looking forward to building some long lasting relationships with our clients and candidates moving forward here at KAG. I hope this blog has managed to provide a little bit of insight into me personally and professionally, so if you’re keen to catch up or you are looking for your next opportunity, please do get in touch. Look forward to hearing from you.
