Senior Recruitment Consultant

About Tom

Firstly, how long have you been at Service Care?

Since April 2018.

​Give us a brief overview of your professional background...

Prior to joining SCS, my background is predominantly in retail and customer service. I spent 3 years working for Bank Fashion, before joining Aldi, where I spent 4 years' working up to Deputy Manager level. Also, I studied Football Business and Media at University, securing an overall 2:1.

What roles do you recruit for and in which areas?

I recruit for Qualified Mental Health Nurses, and also Healthcare Assistants/Support Workers, primarily in the Derbyshire, South Yorkshire and East Riding areas. I supply to various NHS trusts in the areas, recruiting for long term block booking contracts, minimum 3-6 month periods. Day to Day, my job involves resourcing for these roles, using the various tools available to me including our own database and online job boards. I am also heavily involved in the compliance and registration process.

What is your favourite quote/best piece of advice you've ever been given?

You only get out what you put in.

Lastly, when you're not in work, where can we find you?

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my friends and family and going out for a drink. I'm also a season ticket holder in the Stretford End at Manchester United, so I follow and attend their home and away games.
