Katie joined our permanent team as a delivery consultant in November 2023. A graduate of Birmingham City University in Media and Communications, it was her work experience in hospitality that inspired her to join recruitment. Starting her career in early 2023, she chose to join VIQU to further grow and develop her recruitment skills. Katie’s favourite part of recruitment is delivering an offer to a candidate, and knowing she has made a real impact on that individual.
In her spare time, Katie loves to read, go to the gym, do embroidery, and watch movies. Katie’s random fact about herself is that she once ended up in prison accommodation, after accidentally befriending a criminal. Sounds like we’d better keep an eye on her during our next team trip!
