"Hayley was a brilliant part of the team at ETC at a important time for the company, and really helped us not only build a world-class team but understand how to develop them alongside our culture, in the thick-and-fast nature of advertising visual effects. She's a brilliant person to bring in to help build your team."

Ollie Gilmour - Operations Manager - Electric Theatre Collective, London

Working with Hayley was truly a breath of fresh air, completely reversing those odds. Suddenly I felt like I had lazer-focus on true talent in the candidate pool and was spoiled for choice. She is diligent, charming, joyful, and constantly trying to learn specific business requirements to serve up more and more suitable candidates. Really, I can't say enough good things!”

What really stood out to me was how welcoming Hayley was, her caring and enthusiastic personality helped me as I made my first steps into the industry; along with moving to a new city. I can truly say, if I hadn't met Hayley, my path into the VFX industry could have been much more challenging.I am wholeheartedly grateful for Hayley and her commitment to nurturing talent.

“Seasoned recruiter who creates an instant rapport with studios and candidates alike, and understands the importance of culture and belonging in a workplace”

Mark Millar - Executive Producer - Alt.vfx, Sydney

“Working with Hayley while she was the recruitment manager at Fin Design was a fantastic experience. We worked on building the 2D department together at Fin for approximately a year and she was always very thorough when pre-screening candidates, very considerate of the type of candidate we were looking for and she brought an energy and enthusiasm to the role which made working with her very enjoyable.

I would absolutely work with Hayley again and I'd always seriously consider the candidates she presents.”

Will Towle - Head of 2D / VFX Supervisor - Fin Design & Effects 

“Hayley was communicative, easy to talk to and very open with me throughout the recruitment process. She helped to make a comfortable bridge between me and each interviewer I spoke to. Once I had begun at Fin she put effort into making sure I was supported both socially and professionally which helped me to create a stable base in a new environment. Hayley has a fantastic ability to create excitement around the prospect of joining a new team and working in new creative environments.”
