Client Testimonial: Primark

Throughout our time working together, Charlotte has been nothing short of amazing. She has engaged well with senior stakeholders within Primark and has taken the time to really get to know the business and our needs, specifically within Ethical Trade.

She is currently supporting us in building out the Central Support team and we have had three very successful placements so far. It has and continues to be an absolute pleasure to work with you Charlotte and I feel like your skills and knowledge on your industry have been key to the success you have had – you take the time to understand our business, to understand our vision and you deliver.
