East Midlands-based recruitment consultancy, Macildowie, has recruited a further 13 recruitment and trainee consultants.

Cassie Mallon has joined as a divisional manager to lead the HR recruitment team in Nottingham and Derby.

New arrivals at Macildowie’s new Nottingham headquarters are consultants Tia Billinger, Martyn Kingsbury, and Jeanette Spicer, trainee consultants Emily Bodden-Burton, Steve Haworth, Claire King, Amy Frost, and Holly Farmer, and business support administrator Steph Smith.

Joining the team at the company’s offices in Leicester and Milton Keynes, will be recruitment consultants Kate Oliver, Annabel Patel, and Lauren Smith, trainee consultants Ross Abrahams, George Neyland, and business support administrator Natalie Widdowson.

James Taylor, managing director of Macildowie, said: “We’re delighted to have our management team in place, it has been a big investment and gives us the platform to execute our strategic objectives and achieve our ambitious growth plans. Over the previous two years we have recruited a wealth of experience into the business. Now we have created such a strong platform and culture, we envisage that the majority of our recruitment will now be in graduates and trainee consultants.

“We have also recently held two graduate assessment days that have been incredibly successful and we have offered roles to six talented individuals. Five of them will join us in September in our first true ‘talent pool’ intake for a number of years. It will be the first time that our new training facilities will be properly utilised to train recruitment consultants from scratch.”

The company now employs 85 across its offices in Nottingham, Leicester, and Milton Keynes.
