Building Cursor — When I'm not connecting with people around the world, you can either find me hiking (I've been hiking through the Himalayas twice - highly recommend this trip to anyone!), in the garden tending to my ever-growing plant collection, watching anything Bravo-related, or spending time with my loved ones (which includes a couple of fluffy cats). I try to approach life with two main pillars: “it’s either a good idea, or a great story"; I truly believe that career journeys should be approached with a mindset of the one and only Armando Pérez - "paso corto, vista larga"

An extremely fast-paced role that required excellent organisation, prioritisation, technical skills, flexibility, a solutions-based approach to work, good at taking initiative and problem-solving without senior guidance. • What initially started out as a PA role became much more leadership and project focussed (my role being considered as part of the management team, as opposed to just supporting the management team) • Complete inbox management; responding to emails directly on behalf of the director and directing staff on requirements from incoming emails • Team troubleshooting and support. My technical knowledge was expected to be on-par to the Director's so that I was essentially a gatekeeper from the staff before any further escalation was required to free up his time • Full oversight of accounts and management of accounts using Quickbooks and Woocommerce, including creating client invoices and payment reconciliation • Running client meetings and presentations such as Digital Marketing Clinics • Management of staff, including management of full Web Team and Web Projects • Website creation; during a period of staff turnover I upskilled and created a number of websites on behalf of the company • Managing staff recruitment processes • Organising team and company events such as the company conferences and annual client event • Operational planning, decision-making and operational implementation of processes
• My recruitment focus included sourcing technology and engineering professionals for permanent staff appointments and for contract, consultancy, and Interim Management assignments for a diverse range of clients throughout the UK and EMEA. It was very much a consultative recruitment role, where we worked usually exclusively with our clients to provide the ultimate match-making service. • My recruitment ranged from 1st line technical support, all the way to extremely senior management positions - I worked on quite a few Python development placements, but recruited across all technical languages. My speciality was making it a personal service - I'm proud to say that I'm still in touch with former candidates.
