The recruitment work that has given me most satisfaction over the years has been when I have helped somebody secure a role following a Career Break. This has included individuals returning from bringing up young children, caring for relatives, pursuing an alternative career and redundancy. In the last year I have helped an individual commence a role in Reinsurance following a 6 year gap. The key ingredients to this success have been: 👉 The individual being able to demonstrate to the new employer a desire to quickly get up to speed and to grab the opportunity. 👉 Solid previous track record when they last worked in Insurance. 👉 A hiring manager who is open minded, focusing on skills and competencies needed to do the role (not just current experience). 👉 A recruitment process that has enabled me to really understand the skills and competencies needed to deliver in the role. #ipsgroup #insurancerecruitment #reinsurancerecruitment
Kudos to you Tim for not losing sight of the human side! As you say it’s all about relationships and positive collaboration 😁

3moGoing back a while you helped me return to work following a two year break! You worked really hard and finally secured something that relaunched my career. I can chart my subsequent success back to that. Thank you Tim.
