Problem
A scaling business using an outside agency charging between 12-15% per placement fee. Spent £70k in 7 months on recruitment.
Requirement
Business set to double in size within twelve months. Wanted a more cost effective and streamlined recruitment process . Take the business on a journey to becoming an ‘Employer of choice’ within the area and within their Industry.
Solution
Carolann became the internal recruiter 2-3 days a week, tweaked the existing recruitment process and implemented new processes to ensure the candidate journey was personal and professional from start to finish.
Outcome
Recruited 90 staff in twelve months and saved the business £280k in the process. Streamlined the recruitment process, delivered recruitment training and coaching to all line managers. This is still an ongoing process whilst working towards building an internal recruitment team. Supported with the social media overhaul to ensure the business became as attractive as possible to prospective employees. Networked on behalf of the business at the chamber of commerce.
Very helpful from the start and was always polite and professional. Carolann played such an important part in my recent employment with Sencat/LGS ! Thank you again!

Carolann approached me on LinkedIn with a role she was recruiting for at Sencat Ltd and Lancashire gas service Ltd. We had a quick chat over messages and she had soon set up a call to discuss the role and find out more about myself. I was very at ease on the call, Carolann was very bright and bubbly which made me feel relaxed, she supported me throughout the process answering all of my questions (there were a fair few) along the way. She made the experience so positive and even supported me in my interview.
