Piper Pritchard are pleased to announce the appointment of two new highly regarded consultants to the HR team.

Celine O'Gorman

Joining recently, Celine has over eight year's recruitment experience of hiring both finance and HR Professionals into the Commercial, Professional Services and Public Sectors. Celine has worked for two well known specialist finance recruiters and a boutique HR firm, working on senior interim appointments, contingency permanent vacancies and retained searches.

Celine's areas of expertise include;

• The recruitment of mid to senior level HR Professionals into the professional services sector, commercial sector and public sector.
• Interim, permanent and retained search working with both finance and HR professionals

Celine's decision to move to Piper Pritchard rests with the fact that she wanted to work for an organisation that placed its emphasis on individual needs, ensuring that every candidate and client receives the best service tailored to suit them as opposed to having a 'one size fits all' approach.

"I am delighted to join Piper Pritchard at such an exciting time. The company has established an excellent reputation in the market and I am delighted to join such a reputable and successful organisation and participate in the company's ambitious growth strategy".

Celine received her BA honours degree in European Studies from Southampton University. She is a keen runner, regularly participating in 10km runs for charity and will soon be competing in a half marathon in October. A keen linguist, Celine is fluent in French and has also tried her hand at Russian, German and Spanish.

Jamie Newton

With 6 years experience gained within HR Recruitment, Jamie has extensive experience in sourcing HR Professionals within the Financial Services and Commerce & Industry arena. Jamie begun his career within a well known international recruitment firm helping set up their HR recruitment offering, and subsequently moved to a specialist HR boutique to develop his skills in the mid to senior HR markets.

Jamie's area of expertise:

• The recruitment of Senior HR Professionals into the FMCG, Retail, and Telecoms markets.
• Running extensive retained search campaigns and advertised selection.

I joined Piper Pritchard because I wanted to work for a business with a fantastic reputation for quality and excellence within the search firm arena. I choose Piper Pritchard as they truly are a solutions led consultancy that places huge emphasis on understanding their clients needs and creates sourcing strategies to match as opposed to a one style approach, which is so common in this market. For me Piper Pritchard has the professionalism and style that will allow me to truly act as a recruitment partner to my network."

Outside of work Jamie is a keen sportsman and traveler. He plays Waterpolo weekly for his local team, and is a keen rugby player. He enjoys traveling to exotic countries and going on adventure holidays and recently returned from Borneo trekking in search of wild Orangutans.

Sam Cato, Director of Piper Pritchard added.

"I am delighted to welcome both Celine and Jamie to our HR team. Both are exceptional consultants with a true understanding of quality of service for both our clients and candidates alike. They have an enviable track record of success and I look forward to working with such talented individuals."
