Talent Development Director/Internal Recruiter

Louise Ashford-Hodges

Talent Development Director/Internal Recruiter for Fish Hook Careers Ltd - an established in-house recruitment consultancy based in Cambridge. With over 22 years working in the recruitment industry, I manage a team of dedicated in-house recruitment consultants and resourcers to provide hiring solutions for clients across the UK.

Building your employer brand and hiring directly is key to attracting and retaining top talent. A strong employer brand not only showcases your company culture and values but also establishes trust with potential candidates. By prioritising direct hiring, you reduce reliance on recruitment agencies, avoid paying individual placement fees, and create a more personalised candidate experience to your business.

My expertise lies in executing internal recruitment strategies, headhunting campaigns, and managing comprehensive hiring cycles across diverse roles within Sales & Marketing, FMCG Manufacturing, Events and Exhibitions, Supply Chain and Logistics, Digital, Tech, and Creative sectors.

Whether collaborating onsite or remotely with HR teams, my focus is to headhunt top-tier talent for your business.
