HELEN CHARTERIS

I am the Founder and Managing Director of Charteris, I am a champion of ideas, and building Charteris to be a place where talented, engaged recruitment people come together to share strategies, insights and stories.

Since starting Charteris in 2014 I have always wanted to create a recruitment business that develops long term relationships with our clients as well as candidates. Our clients now include global as well as national brands. 

Before launching Charteris I worked for many recruitment companies, High Street and Independent. I recruit Senior Executives for my clients and appreciate that in today’s market you need to exceed your client’s expectations.

On a personal level, I am a DJ and enjoy Northern Soul, I have travelled to Europe and all over the UK for a good dancefloor. I enjoy baking and spending time with my wonderful family.

Make everything simple, yet as significant as you possibly can.
