Patrick Bell
“Recruitment agencies can be their own worst enemy but when you care about building good relationships, you’ll get good results.”
Patrick Bell - Director
“We all love recruitment, many of us after so many years, so we must be a bit mad… but it’s exciting. It’s a great career.”
Izaac Thaw - Director
“The best client relationships are the ones that feel like you work for their organisation. Genesis are not solely looking to make placements, but partner with businesses to offer a greater service based on trust.”
Jo Torrie - Director
“The key to a great service in recruitment is built on results, but what about the journey to that result? Progress reports, updates and factual market feedback, this also part of a great service”
Jonathan Carr - Director
“I feel conscious that we are a service, that we should be adding value wherever we can and that can differ from client to client. Its really important to understand that."
Amy Fitzgerald - Director
“People are the most important part of any business; therefore finding the right recruitment partner who not only understands your business and culture, but delivers the talent to enable achieve your goals, is incredibly valuable. That's what we do"
Patrick Bell - Director
“My goal is always to be seen as a recruiter who isn’t looking to put square pegs in round holes for the sake of a placement.”
Amy Fitzgerald - Director
“A great recruiter is responsive, honest, reliable, has an in depth understanding of your business and not trying to sell you a dream!”
Jo Torrie - Director
"Clients and candidates are tired of dealing with recruiters who dont know their industry or are self serving in their approach, which is why our More Brains and Less Bull approach underpins everything we are about."
Patrick Bell - Director
“Client services is all about people. People work with people they like or with people like them. Understanding that is more important than any job spec I could take.”
Amy Fitzgerald - Director
“For a client, recruitment is only a priority when THEY need it to be, and therefore the relationship is tailored to the client’s requirements and preferences.”
Jo Torrie - Director
“Making candidates feel supported, being transparent about processes and understanding that moving roles is a huge personal decision is crucial in building trust.”
Amy Fitzgerald - Director
“I think candidates and clients would agree, pushy, "salesy" recruiters are often the ones they would stay clear of. Straight forward, honest information, it’s surprising how many times this isn’t that case in recruitment”
Jonathan Carr - Director
“Having an understanding of my candidates outside of their CV makes the process of matching them to the right role so much easier.”
Amy Fitzgerald - Director
