About Yvette

A technical recruitment consultant with a difference.

As a technical recruitment consultant, I love helping companies successfully recruit highly skilled ‘technical’ people.

I am not merely matching buzzwords, but invest time to learn how your business works and the specifics of each role. I gain enormous satisfaction knowing I have helped make a difference to your business!

More than two decades in this field has shown me that a successful outcome for companies and candidates arises from connecting the dots between the hiring company needs, what the candidate has to offer, and their requirements.

This will include:

  • Professional skills and education
  • Experience
  • Personal attributes, attitudes and behaviours
  • Practical requirements: remuneration and location
  • Motivation

Get all of those five elements right and we have found the right person for the right job.

What is everyone else saying?

Here are some comments from happy customers and candidates.

It is indeed my pleasure to thank Yvette Harrison for her contribution. Thanks to Yvette, my Job hunt hasn’t gone through much hassle. Yvette is adept in this technical recruitment arena, exhibiting professionalism, reliable communication and charisma.

I recall my experience with her when she identified my expectations and skill sets to match the right employer. Beyond the recruitment process, she even took personal care in my career path and gave consultation on what would suit me the best, especially as an immigrant in this soil.

Thanking once again for her contribution, I would highly recommend Yvette for candidates seeking opportunities in the operations and continuous improvement field.

It is an absolute pleasure to talk about Yvette H. and her recruitment services. I have the opportunity to meet Yvette approximately two years ago in a recruitment process. It was a remarkable moment in my personal life and career when I was looking for a change. She gave me such good advice and recommendations to be more assertive in my search and helped me to find the ideal job. She`s highly dedicated, insightful, analytical, technical, and empathetic. She goes beyond the classical `Recruiter` role, being completely honest and transparent through the process. I highly recommend Yvette to my friends looking for a better opportunity in their careers.
