Now responsible for seven branches across Kent and a team of over 30, Julie is looking to strengthen HR GO (Kent) and its operating brands in Kentís recruitment market.

Recruiting within the commercial, industrial, driving, executive and technical markets, Julie will look to develop these existing specialist brands, raise their profile and attract new business.

ìBeing responsible for the success of a company this size is a challenging role but I am looking forward to itî, explains Julie.

ìItís a great opportunity to stand back and take a look at the company as a whole and implement new processes and procedures with a new and fresh approach. A new take from the outside can often quickly highlight business areas that could be developed or improved that would otherwise lie hidden.

ìYou are only as good as your team and I am sure that with strong communication and team work we can together increase the success of HR GO Kent and establish it as a fierce player in the Kent recruitment market.î
