Hello, I’m Thomas, the Managing Director here at Principal People.
I have been at the company for 10 years now and have see a great deal of growth and positive change within our business and also within the HSEQ recruitment at large. I oversee the strategic direction of our business and ensure the high quality standards that have come to be expected of Principal People are both maintained and continuously improved upon.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my friends and family, travelling, eating, drinking and enjoying all that life has to offer!
I have been at Principal People since 2014 I specialise in H&S and Environmental recruitment at PP. Away from work, I enjoy spending time with my family which consists of my wife Beth, my two boys Lando and Kobe, our dog Roman and our cats Bentley and Lola.
When I’m not with the family I enjoy dog walks, cooking, playing golf (badly) as well as watching rugby, football and F1.

Thanks for taking the time to get to know me.
I have been with Principal People and recruiting in HSEQ for over 7 years (and aged much more than this!).
Day-to-day I have the pleasure of working alongside and leading the Corporate Services & Quality team, recruiting for some truly fascinating businesses.
Outside of work I am a father (to a human and a dog), a below-average / highly inconsistent golfer and a massive Arsenal fan (this is our year – surely?).
Hello, I am Max, the Manager of the contract and interim desk here at Principal People. I have been with the business for 10 years now progressing from a Trainee Resourcing Parter.
Outside of work you will find me trying to find my golf ball on the golf course or on holiday with my wife and daughter.

Hello, I’m Olivia and I’m a Recruitment Assistant here at PP. I spend my day mainly helping assist the Infrastructure and Construction team with all stages of recruitment – Something I very much enjoy! Being fairly new to the business, I have already learned so much and grown as a person in my short time here.
When I’m not working, I love to go out with my friends for a nice meal, drink and dance. I also have a guilty soft spot for a bit of karaoke and a singsong!

I’m a Principal Account Manager here within the Manufacturing and Production team at Principal People where I manage the whole recruitment process and deal with both candidates and clients. I am a semi-professional football referee and operate on the Football League and National League systems.
Hi! I’m Francheska but go by Fran, I’m the Senior Resourcing Partner at Principal People. I have been here for nearly 6 years now which has flown by as I genuinely love my job and the company. The best part of my role would have to be being able to help a candidate find their dream job. Day-to-day I manage the start-to-end candidate management process, from a candidate search for a role to an initial conversation, submission of CV to the client, preparation for interview, to offering a candidate the position.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, going on long walks, and decorating my new house. I also enjoy a weekend escape to the coast as my Mum lives in Devon so I frequently visit her and make the most of the beach in the summer when England occasionally has nice weather.

I'm Louise, hello! Late in 2022, I started working for Principal People as an Associate Consultant for our Manufacturing Team.

As well as many incentives and out-of-office activities.
Outside of work, I like exploring new cities and countries, trying new foods, and experiencing new cultures.

Hi, I’m Nicky, I’m our Talent and L&D Lead for Principal People.
I’ve been with ‘PP’ for almost a decade!! The last year of this I’ve spent enjoying my current position, and prior to this I worked within our search division, focussing efforts on supporting our senior candidates.
In my current role, I get to work with our newest recruits into the business, and also support our existing team members. It’s very rewarding.
Outside of work, life is busy being mum to a teenager and a demanding 4-year-old. Family time is hugely important to me, and any free time I can get my hands on is usually spent trying to enjoy 5 minutes peace!

When I’m not working, I love to go out with my friends for a nice meal, drink and dance. I also have a guilty soft spot for a bit of karaoke and a singsong!

My name is Rosie, I started at PP Recruitment 3 and a half years ago in a Credit Control role and worked my way up to Credit Control Manager. There is more to Credit Control than the stereotypes of only chasing people for money and being aggressive. It is so refreshing that PP Recruitment have an ethical, flexible, and friendly ethos to cater for all our client’s needs. This is why I love my job, (few people can say that and mean it!)
Outside of the office, I have 2 teenage girls, 2 dogs, 1 cat and a hamster to keep me, (very) busy. When I finally have some down time, I enjoy going to the cinema a few times a month and meeting up with friends for a much-needed glass of wine!
Hi, my name is Jacquie and I am the Assistant Management Accountant at Principal People. I have been with the team for almost 2 years and feel very lucky to work alongside some great people! My day is very varied across all areas of the finance function and alongside work I am studying to become AAT qualified.
Outside of work I enjoy being with family and friends - I have 3 children and an energetic dog who keep me busy!
