This is Us

We fear no one and nothing in our purpose driven approach to inclusion. We don’t need permission and we won’t wait for fear of failure.
We all have ideas and sometimes our ideas are better than others, we share those ideas loudly, wildly and proudly to support inclusion and business growth.
If you keep doing things the same way, things will never change. We are ready to challenge you to do better.
Our team are honest, genuine, approachable, friendly and fun, and free to be themselves.

Dom Szczecinski

Recruitment & HR Advisor

Dom:

As a Recruitment & HR Advisor, I enjoy helping our clients on their journeys and doing so with the values of our company has a huge meaning to me.

My biggest drive and the reason why I do this, is because there is no better feeling than helping someone to achieve their goals.

My superpower is caring and helping others and seeing them succeed through my help and support.

Priya Cinar

Priya Cinar

Director of Strategic Recruitment Services

Priya:

I love and enjoy the varied nature of the work at Inclusive Recruiting, the diversity in our organisation, clients and candidates. I like to challenge the status quo and explore different ways of working collaboratively with clients and colleagues to bring out their skills and ideas. I know my strengths as a leader and people manager and can really utilise these in my role whilst moving the people and business forward.

There is a saying - "if you stand still, you will never move forward". I'm always moving forward, never stand still and never wait for the next step - I take it!

Sophia Simpson

Marketing & Communications Manager

Sophia:

I'm the Marketing & Comms Manager for Inclusive Recruiting and A little bit of HR. My focus is on communicating our opportunities and services to clients and candidates, managing the social media accounts for both brands, designing marketing materials and supporting the team to get our messaging out to an as wide and diverse audience as possible!

My friends tell me I’m a good cook and working in marketing and communications can be like making a big family meal – lots to prepare, many elements needing to be checked on and monitored, but such great satisfaction when it's finally served and I get to share and shout about the amazing work our team is doing every day!

Most of all I love the work we do to create a sense of belonging in the workplace. If at the end of a training workshop or after a successful placement we have given someone the confidence to feel comfortable being truly themselves, then we are achieving what we set out to do.
