I am extremely impressed with laura, we had never spoken before and she managed to capture everything that I was looking for in my search for a new role. Within a week she had found an opportunity and managed to secure an interview for me at very short notice, I had a second interview the following week and they offered me the job. I now have a great job that I enjoy with the salary and benefits I required and with the prospects I was looking for...possibly my best role todate. Laura has since kept in touch which is very much appreciated and I would thoroughly recommend Laura

      Thatcher Associates are a recruitment agency. I worked in the Construction sector as a trainee in the newly established Retail Construction sector. • I set up my own desk from scratch, working on both temporary and permanent positions across the retail, shop fitting and refurbishment sector. • I gained a variety of new skills, as well as developing my knowledge further, such as diary management, organisational skills, communication skills, client relationship building and an in depth understanding of the current market. • I was promoted from a Trainee to Consultant in 3 months. • Account management – ensuring relationships were built and maintained with Client and Candidates alike to maintain current revenue levels. • Fee negotiation with potential Clients prior to working on their vacancies. I also agreed contract terms. • Regular travelling as I worked on a national basis • Referencing – carrying out references for potential employees. This was also a great opportunity to discuss potential business with a perspective Client. • Sales calls (both warm and cold) to maintain current client relationships and to generate new business. • I was set KPI’s each month and achieved these targets. • Invoicing Clients for works completed. • Producing monthly revenue inline with KPI’s if not exceeding expectations. • Candidate management – I would assist candidates with any concerns they had as well as ensuring they were comfortable when taking a new role.
