Rock solid start for recruitment company

Finance and HR Recruitment specialists, Chase and Holland, are helping accountant Rachel Sheppard to celebrate securing a new role, after becoming one of the first candidates to secure a job through the company’s new office based in Scunthorpe. This new location will service Yorkshire & Lincolnshire.

Rachel will join Doncaster-based Aggregates R Us as Finance Manager after spending the last seven years working with a leading bathrooms specialist. She brings with her over twenty years of accountancy experience.

Rachel secured the position after contacting Chase and Holland. Following an initial interview with Director Bev Hudson, the company identified a suitable role at Aggregates R Us, and after a formal interview with Managing Director Mark Robinson, Rachel was offered the role.

Chase and Holland specialises exclusively in Finance and HR positions, and only registers high calibre candidates that have been vetted through an initial telephone screening, followed by a face-to-face interview. Rachel’s new role is particularly special to the company as she is one of the first candidates to secure employment from Chase and Holland’s new division which was set up 3 months ago.

Bev Hudson said: “We believe that forging strong relationships between both the companies that we work with and the candidates that we represent is vital. We only place a candidate on our books once we have met with them, discussed what they are looking for in their next role, and gauged their long-term career ambitions.

“In this case, after meeting to discuss the role Mark from Aggregates R Us, and by understanding exactly what Rachel was looking for in a job, I recognised that the two were perfectly suited.  Mark even offered Rachel the job at the end of the interview!”

Mark Robinson, Managing Director for Aggregates R Us said:  “I was impressed by the levels of professionalism that Chase and Holland offered my company, they understood exactly what my business was looking for in a candidate and I am confident that Rachel will be a valuable asset when she joins the company in January 2012.”

Rachel Sheppard added: “I have worked in my current role for over seven years, and decided that the time was right to look for a new challenge. I contacted Chase and Holland, and Bev and the team quickly set me up with Aggregates R Us. I was impressed with the levels of communication and professionalism that they displayed throughout the process. I am really looking forward to starting my new role, it’s a very exciting opportunity for me to further develop my career.”

Founded in 2007, Chase and Holland has grown rapidly, and now employs 14 recruitment consultants across sites in Derby, Chesterfield and from it’s new Yorkshire and Lincolnshire base, which aims to provide support for businesses throughout the A1/ M180/ M62/ M18 corridors.
