Meet the Team

Lucy began her recruitment career in 1990 at a London IT executive search and selection firm and soon realised she had found her vocation. After moving to a large UK-wide IT recruitment agency Lucy progressed to Regional Manager before joining a Thames Valley-based consultancy as Head of UK Permanent Services. Keen to return to her native Essex, Lucy became Managing Director of an Essex-based general agency. In 2008 she decided to bring her recruitment expertise and dedication to quality to local clients and set up RecruitAbility with Wendy. Lucy is a Fellow of the Institute of Recruitment Professionals and bound by their code of ethics. 

Wendy began her career in the HR department of one of the best known high street retailers in Oxford Street. She then worked for many years as a PA to Chief Executives in the City stockbroking and property sectors, giving her first-hand understanding of what it takes to be a successful PA/EA and administrator. Wendy then ran her own successful retail business before deciding that her skills would combine with Lucy’s experience to make the perfect recruitment consultancy and RecruitAbility was born!

Laura is PA to both RecruitAbility directors and our Office Manager. She is responsible for our procurement, compliance, payroll and timesheet queries as well as ensuring that the office runs like clockwork! Laura came from a financial services background, having worked for prestigious City financial institutions such as UBS. Her experience also includes working for a specialist recruitment agency as PA/Office Manager. 

Adrienne started out in the property industry and throughout her career has worked at some of the UK’s most recognisable companies. Her recruitment experience was gained while working for Manpower plc, where she was a branch manager and responsible for business development, training and recruitment. She then worked at Hobsons Publishing for several years, where she was Sales Manager for a graduate recruitment publication, which gave her a comprehensive understanding of the recruitment industry. Adrienne joins RecruitAbility following a period of running her own successful business and is looking forward to using her skills and experience to help our clients and candidates.

Kelly has worked in recruitment for over 20 years. Starting out as a PA in the City, she fell into recruitment and has never looked back.  Kelly understands how important it is to build long term working relationships with clients in order to gain an in-depth knowledge of their business and industry. This then gives her the knowledge to assist our candidates in their search for the right role, enabling her to make a perfect match between our client and our candidate.
