What were you doing before you joined Douglas Scott Legal Recruitment?

I just completed my law degree at Edge Hill University and was working in the sales department of a call center in the energy sector.

What are you most looking forward to in your new role?

I am most looking forward to a new opportunity and adventure, hitting the ground running in a new career and the opportunities to progress up the ladder with Douglas Scott. I also love the idea of helping people discover new opportunities for themselves in their careers.

If you weren’t in recruitment what would you be doing?

I would most likely be pursuing my law degree down the more traditional route of further study with an LPC and becoming a solicitor.

Tell us something that people might not know about you?

I love true crime documentaries and it scares my boyfriend to no end how calm I am when I watch them! I suppose that is where the love of the legal industry comes from.
