  Hays enabled me to gain valuable knowledge of the business world, trading with companies and creating key relationships with high-net-worth management teams. Recruiting for Her Majesty’s Prison Service on the Construction and Property Team was rewarding and I achieved beyond the expectations of the company by developing the highest fee-earning Construction desk in the whole of the UK (£711,209/yr.). While learning the 360-degree process of recruitment, I employed Site Managers and Supervisors, which involved negotiating with key clients at specific prisons and applicants who were looking for roles within the organisation. Placing candidates into high-paid positions was incredibly fulfilling and enabled me to contribute to business success by increasing fees and maintaining excellent client relationships. Main achievements: I played a crucial role in increasing the team fees from £32k in September 2018 to £74k in July 2019, achieving a 77% fill rate of candidates into roles, the highest across the UK and Ireland. I was highly praised and this was an outstanding success which resulted in being awarded the Consultant of the Month Trophy in recognition of my overall development. Throughout my time at Hays, I received excellent testimonials from clients, along with being invited onto the High-Achiever £20k Club event held in London for exceptional accomplishments. Internal recruitment: Having performed to a high level at Hays, I became a Talent Scout which involved working alongside the Internal Recruitment Team to recruit for Interns, Graduates and Associates for multiple offices across the East of England and the UK. I filled three positions in the Ipswich Office while in the role of Hays Talent Scout, which led to me becoming a Hays Ambassador post-internship. As an Ambassador, I assisted with recruiting prospective Interns, Graduates and Associates by discussing the career opportunities that Hays could offer them.
