Kate Chandan
Director
My career path has taken some interesting turns! I started out in the world of recruitment, where I thrived on constant communication and building relationships. Let’s face it: I love talking and helping people, so recruitment was a perfect fit – it’s basically talking all day long!
Then, life threw some wonderful curveballs – my lovely children, Louis (13), Theo (11), and Ida (8) came along. After taking a well-deserved career break to raise them, I knew it was time to get back into the game.
When I’m not recruiting, coaching clients, or crushing a WOD (Workout of the Day) at the gym, you’ll find me spending time with my amazing husband, Solo, and our three little ones. It’s a full house, but I wouldn’t have it any other way!
Get in TouchHowever, before taking the leap to launch my own Executive Recruitment (ER) business in May 2022, I gained valuable experience in the corporate sales world.
I honed my communication and relationship-building skills even further, working for some fantastic FMCG (Fast-Moving Consumer Goods) companies like Seabrooks, Fox’s Biscuits, and Heineken.
In these roles, I dealt directly with major retailers, so I understand the challenges and opportunities that businesses face in today’s competitive market.
But I’m not all work and no play! Outside of the office, you’ll find me at the gym, channelling my inner athlete as a CrossFit enthusiast. I love the challenge it brings, both physically and mentally.
However, to balance out all that activity, I also have a deep appreciation for good food – ALL food! My absolute favourite meal is a classic steak and chips; you can’t go wrong with that.
