What do you like most about working for Pure Staff:
There are many pro’s to working at Pure Staff, for me the transparency and honesty of the Directors and Senior Management speak volumes for how much they value the experience and contributions from their staff.
Opinions and new ideas are welcomed, and support through difficult circumstances is always just a phone call away. In fact most of the time I don’t need to make that phone call because I am contacted by my Senior Manager or the Directors regularly to check in that all is going well both professionally and personally.
What’s your biggest challenge in recruitment right now: My challenge is to retain and motivate the consultants on the driving desks. To instil perseverance, resilience and a sense of calm in what can at times be manically busy working day.
