“In 2008 I saw a gap in the recruitment market place, in 2009 I founded Citrus Connect Recruitment with my launch client, The Automobile Association. With my help and expertise, we grew their direct sales force from a 80 person headcount to 250 within 18 months.
I perfected a recruitment process so simple, easy and efficient to specifically recruit 'self-employed' direct sales personnel. We now work with clients in all industries and are sought after for our track and evaluate processes which gives you real time insights of the recruitment journey specific to your business. I started Citrus Connect Recruitment to share the power of direct sales and how it can completely transform lives, today we recruit for all types of sales roles from canvassers, telesales to direct sales personnel. And now recruiting for sales managers and directors across all sectors.”

“Choosing my graduate subject was never a difficult choice for me, of course, I would choose International Politics. I wanted to see good in the world, I wanted to see a change in the world, a change for good! Working at the United Nations in New York was a great experience but also a realization that it will take more than a little ‘young’ me! Completing a PGCE to make a difference in children's lives was also so fulfilling, however, my childhood dream to be an entrepreneur never gave up on me! Saying that I was passionate that the business I built would make a philanthropic difference."
“In today's socially conscious environment, myself as an employer, our employees, clients and candidates place a premium on working for and spending their money with a business that prioritizes corporate social responsibility policy. For me, that means, we make a difference in the world, including subjects of sustainability, protecting our environment, EDI and ethical practices."
Businesses, regardless of size, have large carbon footprints. We take all possible steps to ensure we reduce those footprints and focus on environmental sustainability.
We promise to engage in work that is legal, and fair and ensure decent treatment of workforces, whilst promoting a full DEI strategy.
We volunteer within various organisations, offering our expertise to audiences of different audiences and sizes to positively impact people’s careers.
Every year we will support a campaign that is close to the Founders’ heart. Currently, we are supporting Kings Ransom Foundation building orphanages in India, Kenya and Belize.
With our help, we have given education, food, and sustainability to thousands of orphans. Recently, we have seen major increases in the price of goods due to inflation and supply chain issues. This has created problems for some of the orphanages we work closest with.
Supporting the Kings Ransom Foundation is investing in the future of children who would have no opportunities without our donations. We will legitimately transform generations. We put food in the mouths of orphans, give them the opportunity to receive an education that can pave a path of opportunity for themselves.
