What is your current role?

I am currently an HR Account Manager for Gravitate HR.

What qualifications do you hold?

I recently completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Human Resource Management where I gained graduate membership of the CIPD. Prior to this, I completed a BSc in Psychology at the University of Edinburgh.

Why did you get into HR?

During my degree in psychology, and with an interest in human behaviour and relations, I was informed of the opportunities and rewards within HR. After studying I took a year out to travel before returning and stepping into the role of a Recruitment Consultant. I have now found my two years recruitment experience provided me with a great groundwork for the area of recruitment and selection. I hope now I will gain the skills and knowledge to progress within my chosen career and develop techniques and ways that support both employer and employee.

How did you get into HR?

After two years as a Recruitment Consultant I decided to return to University to begin my career path in HR. I was exposed to the effective development of key business relationships and the importance of attracting and retaining the right people. This is my first role in HR and I hope to play a key part within the team at Gravitate HR.

Where do you see yourself in 5 years' time?

I hope to build on my knowledge and skills while working at Gravitate HR. Ideally, I want to have played a significant part in the successful growth of the Company, and become a Senior Consultant dealing with a wide variety of businesses in order to gain maximum exposure.

What's been your biggest career high so far?

To date, is having the strength and will to return to University and complete my second qualification in a subject I am enthusiastic about.
