Hi Holly, what is your career background, and how long have you been working for BT6?
I have had quite a varied career, covering Operations Management, Sales, Account Management & Social Media Marketing. I left Corporate in 2016 after my own business grew beyond a part time sideline; enabling me to work from home around my little ones. I made my way back into Corporate in 2021 and took over the management of BT6 in mid 2022. It’s a joy to work with such a vibrant team who are passionate about matching talent with the right opportunity.
What is your role and what does it involve?
As MD I have overall responsibility for driving strategy, sales, relationship management and operational delivery.
Most rewarding part of your role?
I thoroughly enjoy the whole process; from capturing the requirement from the client, to briefing the team and witnessing them come into their own, especially when working on more challenging roles. There is a huge sense of achievement when we match a candidate with the right opportunity, helping both candidate and client grow and expand. Operationally, I love a process so implementing our internal systems has been incredibly rewarding; freeing the team up to focus on building relationships with candidates and clients alike. I also have a real passion for aesthetics and marketing, so implementing the new website and seeing the socials come to life is also a real joy.
Most challenging aspects of your role?
Things move fast in Recruitment, and on occasion roles can be filled by internal HR departments/competitors before we’ve had a chance to really sink our teeth into the role, which can be a challenge, but we thrive under pressure and focus on ensuring we are providing a holistic service, and getting to know candidates in our ever-growing database so that we have a pool of available talent ready to go.
Has there been a most memorable moment in your job?
When I took the reins, back in 2022, we were given three high-level roles for a leading digital agency in London. Despite being up against an incumbent, we really rose to the challenge and placed two of the three roles; the third was placed by their internal HR department. It was a huge win for the business and we took great joy in ringing our office sales bell to celebrate!
Advice for candidates seeking work in the regulated sector?
Our clients are looking for highly skilled, personable candidates who are aligned with their mission and cultural values. In a highly competitive market, your skillset and ability to move fast is your strength. Ensuring your CV is up to date, you have the desired skills and have presented yourself in the best light are all standard, but in order to stand out we advise researching the company you are seeking employment from, aligning yourself with their values and mission statement, and absorbing as much information on them as you can prior to interview, and if possible, prior to submitting your CV and cover letter.
From a client's perspective, what makes BT6 different from other recruitment agencies? Why should they choose BT6 when it comes to finding the right, talented candidates?
We pride ourselves on providing a fully-immersive resourcing solution. Our consultants are committed to learning about the company culture and strategic aims, so that they can source and match applicants appropriately. We know that you need staff who complement your company’s ethos, share its objectives and deliver outstanding performance, so we take a holistic approach when screening any potential candidates. Helping you find high-quality team members begins with understanding your business and how each role contributes to it. With our extensive network and sector-specific databases, we select candidates not only based on their CVs, qualifications and experience but also on the aptitudes, additional talents and personal attributes they can bring to each role.
What do you think the future holds for BT6? Any plans for the year ahead?
We are extremely excited for the future at BT6; we have broken new ground with our US clients and look forward to growing overseas. Our candidate portal is growing at a rapid rate and we look forward to presenting talent to new clients both at home and overseas, within the regulated sector.
