Bio
Sasha O’Donovan
Laura helped me several times recruiting for my team, always with great efficiency and success. Laura always takes the time to understand the company, the culture and the team with excellent results. She never left any doubt in my mind that she wouldn’t find me the perfect candidate. Most importantly Laura is a delight to work with, calm, patient, friendly and an excellent listener. Laura would be an asset to any future project, team and organisation.
Kate Falconer
Laura was friendly, supportive and a pleasure to work with. It's hard to come by recruiters who actually listen to you and Laura was brilliant at it! Thank you for all of your help.

As the lead personal contact on 40+ client accounts I really enjoyed building relationships with contacts across all levels, as well as nurturing long-lasting productive candidate relationships. I valued instilling a positive working culture internally, developing junior consultants and inspiring everyone to achieve KPIs as part of a collaborative team. Working externally with varied industries, I am highly adaptable and enjoy continually learning as well as being challenged outside of my comfort zone.

RMS Recruitment is a boutique style consultancy that inspires loyalty in candidates and clients alike, boasting long-term relationships in the competitive support staff market. Based in the heart of Mayfair and with a strong industry reputation, we worked hard to attract top quality candidates with experience in industries including Investment Banking, Property, Search and Selection, Fund Management, Events, Fashion and Luxury Goods, PR and Financial Boutiques. The hardest skill in secretarial recruitment is finding the right “fit” between PA and boss, and at RMS I learnt the importance of investing in consultative relationships, listening and carrying out due diligence to match chemistry between people and make lasting placements.
