What made you join Tile Hill, and what's kept you here?

I've always believed in the impact local government has on communities. It shapes people's daily lives in ways that often go unnoticed, but matter enormously. Tile Hill stood out because that belief isn't just talked about, it's reflected in how the business operates every day.

What's kept me here is the culture. It's inclusive, high-performing and remarkably consistent. The values aren't simply words on a wall; you see them in how colleagues support one another, how we work with candidates and clients, and how integrity and accountability show up in everyday decisions. It's a business that genuinely cares about doing the right thing, and that's something I've always valued.

What's surprised you most about working here?

The biggest surprise has been how quickly trust is given. From early on, I was given real ownership and responsibility rather than being kept on the sidelines, which accelerated my development far more than I expected.

I've also been surprised by how collaborative the environment is. Recruitment is often seen as a highly competitive industry, but at Tile Hill people share knowledge, celebrate each other's successes and work together to achieve the best outcomes.

My career growth has been shaped by genuine conversations about my strengths, interests and where I can add the most value. Regular career discussions with managers and mentors, combined with a real commitment to training and development from the leadership team, mean there's always support to help you progress and build new skills.

What would you tell someone thinking about joining the team?

Come with curiosity, not just experience.

If you've worked in recruitment before, you'll quickly notice the difference. Tile Hill takes a partnership-led approach, with a genuine focus on understanding the sector, the challenges organisations face and the people behind every appointment. It's about building long-term relationships and doing the right thing for candidates and clients, not simply chasing transactions.

Bring your ambition and expertise, but be prepared to learn new ways of working. If you're looking for an environment where hard work, integrity and quality are genuinely valued, you'll thrive here. It's a business that takes candidate experience incredibly seriously and is committed to delivering the highest standards in everything it does.
