Managing Director

I HELP WITH

I was part of the Cherry team from the very beginning, I am one of the original founders and set up the business back in 2008. I have been part of the journey from day 1, and today I lead the team and oversee the running of Cherry Professional.

MY APPROACH

As one of the founders of Cherry Professional LTD in 2008 I have been here from the start, have seen growth, and challenges, and have learned a lot over the different economic cycles since starting up. I believe in building long-term, trusting relationships, and to earn this we must live by our values, remain humble, continue learning, and be tireless in our effort to provide excellent advice, and guidance and genuinely add value. It is what our customers think that matters the most, and I’m very proud that we are the No. 1 Rated Agency on Google for service. We’ve continually invested back into the business and are fortunate to now have cutting-edge tools, IT systems, marketing platforms, analytics tools, and the associated training to make the most of them. We offer our team a fantastic suite of tech tools to enable our consultants to be successful, and happy and to help add value to our candidates and clients. Interested in working with me/us? I aim to always give my best, I invest time in learning, I’m inquisitive, helpful, and humble and keep my word. I’m an NTU Alumni Fellow and enjoy giving time to mentor others and help them formulate career plans. I am also a trained PI practitioner. My goal is for “Cherry Professional to be the most trusted recruitment consultancy in the East Midlands; the first call for anyone contemplating career or hiring decisions” and we’ll continue to do everything possible to achieve this. “We exist to inspire confidence in everyone we work with. Empowering our candidates, clients, and team to succeed and be happy”. It is my mission to grow Cherry and have a positive journey doing so, working with inspiring like-minded people.

FUN FACT

As a mum of two busy boys, I spend most of my weekends at football, rugby, cricket, and playdates! As I come from a large family, you will also find me most weekends at birthdays or some other family occasion, which usually involves eating. We are a foodie family and being of Japanese origin, I adore Japanese food – ramen, sushi, nori maki, miso, gyoza, soba! I love food and travel and get very excited when it comes to either. So I always want to hear about your restaurant experiences and keep my ear to the ground for what is going on.
