Who am I and what can I do for you?
I am a Resourcer based in the Manchester office. The main focus of my role includes sourcing candidates for legal vacancies for the consultants in the business. I also provide support to the consultants including writing, organising and sending mailshots and marketing literature, preparing CVs for sending, writing adverts for jobs and vetting candidate advert response first.  In addition, my role requires me to keep in regular contact with candidates to ensure that we are fully up to date with exactly what they are looking for and where.

Despite my favourite subjects being Theology and English Literature, I chose to study Law at University and long before graduating, knew that a legal career was something I did not want to pursue. The possibility of a recruitment career came to my attention shortly afterwards, when I began resourcing for a small general recruitment company.  I decided I wanted to do legal recruitment with a firm that could train me to do so to the best of my ability... and here I am.

If I wasn't doing what I am doing now, what alternative career would I choose and why?

I would probably go working abroad as an 18-30 rep, or on a cruise ship, so that I would be paid to see a bit more of the world and have fun, while I decide on my alternative career! I think it would be cool to be an interior designer (a rich one). Or a book reviewer (fiction only) - getting paid to read books and write what I thought of them would be even cooler; in fact, I would enjoy reviewing films and plays too. So, I started as an interior designer and ended up a critic - I can never decide!

Likes: Reading, writing, lions (naturally, being a Leo), shoes, gambling, music and anything to do with the paranormal. Oh, and Saturday nights!

Dislikes: Icy pavements (particularly in busy places), dark chocolate, quiet weekends in or hangovers.

Five Words that Describe Me: Spontaneous, open-minded, feisty, loyal, and sometimes (according to others), impatient!
