Meet Our (secretly the favourite) Team
Winnie
CCO- Chief Cuddle Officer

I love being in the office and all the attention I get. I start whining about 3 minutes away because I get so excited to see all my friends. I mainly spend my day going around and standing on my back legs so I can have proper cuddles with everyone, sometimes I get treats that people bring me in especially. My best friend is Teddy as he sits near me but we have a bit of a love/ hate relationship when it comes to food as we don’t like to share. I also love fancy dress.

Ozzie
The real boss

Although I am the boss’s dog I am the real boss and I can get him to do whatever I want. I am an excellent guard dog and sneeze hard at any potential threats. I love long walks along the shore path near Swanwick or in the hills around Winchester. My favourite thing to do is to chase a ball and roll in the sand… I have unlimited energy, although I do like a cuddle with my blanket in the evening.

Meet Our Behind The Scenes
Operations Team
Macy Simmons
Business Administrator

You’ll usually find me with my besties, either curled up on the sofa with a cup of tea or out on the town with a glass of wine in hand (Rosé Blush, of course!).

I’m a huge Taylor Swift fan and could talk about her all day long. I was lucky enough to see her perform live in Tampa, Florida, in April 2023, and it was INCREDIBLE.

I never go anywhere without my sunnies (rain or shine!) and firmly believe cowboy boots are always appropriate — and always iconic.

I live for holidays, whether that’s skiing down the slopes of France, dancing on a beach in Croatia, or exploring a new city. I love it all!!!

Laura Edmunds
Content Marketing Executive

In my spare time I love tackling DIY projects around the house – I’ll give pretty much anything a go! I also enjoy weight training, watching F1 (I’m doing terribly in my fantasy league…), cooking, and spending time with my friends and family (preferably in the sun). I’m a BIG country music fan – this year I’m trying to go to as many country music concerts and festivals as possible!

James Collinson
Management Accountant

Working out the ropes as a new dad while juggling my many interests. I play snooker and pool for a team on a weekly basis and love competing at a decent level. I tend to be very competitive and love trying new things (all the while introverted). Will always try to go to one new place in world a year. I’m Interested in many sports but mostly American football and support the Miami Dolphins 🐬.

Jana McDonald
AI and Marketing Manager
I’m half German, half American, and grew up in sunny Spain. These days, you’ll find me up north, making the most of the great outdoors, usually hiking in the Lake District (with a well-deserved pub stop at the end, of course). I love travelling to warmer places whenever I can, or winding down at home with a good book and my two cats, Maple and Chai.
I’m passionate about learning and recently completed a Mini MBA in Marketing. I’m also known to binge-watch real estate shows (yes, Location, Location, Location is a guilty pleasure), and I’ll proudly defend pineapple on pizza!
Michelle Green
Payroll Administrator

My three children are my world, I absolutely love being their mummy! I enjoy cooking and that always involves a glass of wine and good friends. I think I’d say my favorite place to be is outside – horse riding, paddleboarding and long forest walks – we also have two gorgeous black labradors. Having said that, there’s also nothing better than sitting in front of the open fire on a wet and windy day!

Emily Amos
Learning and Development Manager

I am not one for hobbies however I do have a few loves which consist of wine, travel, food, family, and my daughter Ava who is the cutest girly in the world. I love attending music events and can generally be found in the sun, sunnies on, with a drink in my hand.

Isabel Mogliani
Head of Legal & Compliance

I’m a passionate food enthusiast and love discovering new restaurants. With two young children, my husband and I don’t get as many opportunities to dine out as we used to, but we make the most of it when we can! We live in a beautiful seaside village on the south coast and enjoy family trips to the beach. When the weather keeps us indoors, we love playing games—where I proudly hold the title of reigning Monopoly Deal champion.

Meet Our Leadership Team
Josie Hughes
Director of Marketing, Strategy and Culture

Things I love:

My son Finley, Skiing (Finn is already much better at this than I am !), fancy dress, cooking (actually food in general, we talk about it a lot at work!), holidays, spending time with friends and family and of course my dog Winnie- she has her own profile on here.

Liam Thomas
Co-Founder

I am a Dad to 2 great kids, Summer & Jude and a Labradoodle called Ozzie. Our health is our greatest asset so I’m passionate about self-care, both physically and mentally. I love travel and experiences with friends and family. I’m also passionate about creating opportunities for our young people and work with several schools on their careers and route to work provision.

I’m very competitive and love any kind of sport or challenge from climbing mountains to trying (and failing) to beat the kids at board games. When I’m not at the gym, kickboxing or walking Ozzie, you’ll find me cooking with a glass of wine. I was once invited to be on MasterChef but sadly had to turn it down due to work commitments. One for the future…..

Kieran
Director

I am a family man, married, with two young sons who I love spending time with more than anything. Outside of playing Dad and Husband, I enjoy the outdoors and you’ll either catch me playing golf, or when feeling more adventurous, hiking various spots across the UK and Europe, such as the Brecon Beacons, Snowdonia, Scottish Highlands and the Norwegian Fjords.

Chris Hayes
Finance Director

I’m someone who tries to keep life simple.  Family, a sense of achievement, music, a game of pool with mates, a few beers.. just being happy!  I’m a Saints fan through thick and thin, a bit obsessed with cars, and still partial to hitting the decks for a late-night trance mix from the late 90’s and early 20’s (vinyl, obviously). I love animals, especially my cats, and as much as I enjoy being social, I also really value my own space — time to think, unwind, and just be.

Rhonda D'Ambrosio
Head of Performance and Culture

I try to bring good energy in everything I do. Outside of work I’m often found planning and researching my next adventure, I’m obsessed with travelling and have probably spent more time on planes this past year than I have in the supermarket! Sunshine is my happy place as are animals (especially dogs). Love music – all genres and despite no longer being in a band I am still known to pick up a microphone every now and then.

Andy Morris
Director - Client Solutions

I’ve spent the last 25 years working in engineering recruitment and I’m passionate about the industry — particularly the no-blame, learn-and-improve culture that underpins great engineering teams. I enjoy creating talent solutions that support short-, medium- and long-term workforce planning, and I’ve loved immersing myself in the diverse range of options the sector has to offer. Outside of work, life is busy with three children (although only one still lives at home) and a growing family of animals — three dogs, two cats, two horses and a tortoise. When I’m not working, you’ll usually find me back to nature, spending time outdoors and at the horse yards.

Samantha Roberts
Director - Customer Engagement

I’m a dedicated leader within the recruitment industry across multiple sectors, known for a customer-focussed approach. With a proven track record in building strong relationships and driving customer success through strategic partnerships and effective problem-solving.
