Finding the best talent is also pivotal to providing the expertise to support clients and candidates in the current economic climate and help them address skills, talent shortages and other senior-level recruitment pain points.  

Commenting on the four new recruits, Spencer Riley founder and managing director, Scott Ellam, said:

“These four new appointments are another significant step towards expanding our sector specialisms and achieving our growth plans and vision. It’s hugely satisfying to have significantly grown the team in the last 12 months and I feel Jack, Kelsey, Declan, and Corey will fit extremely well within our business and add great value to our portfolio of global clients.”
