Sophie shares what it's like to work at ADLIB.

When I was a kid I wanted to become…

an actress. Not very original but I did land a TV advert part at age 7, which subsequently got my mum into acting and she is still an actress now. I was destined for recruitment even back then! 

For me, this is “what working at ADLIB” is all about:

Being on a mission to find incredible people the best next step in their career without any of the usual agency non-sense. ADLIB’s values are incredible and everyone is so supportive. Working for a B Corp really does impact our every-day life and gives purpose to what we do as recruiters. 

My biggest feel-good moment since I’ve been at ADLIB:

My first placement! An incredible moment coming out the other side of the pandemic. 

How I explain what I do at a party:

I work with some very cool businesses finding them the best tech talent in London. 

Beyond recruitment at ADLIB, I care about...

my family and friends, I am a mum of one and spend a lot of time doing mum things at the weekend. I love interiors and spend a lot of time plumping cushions and rearranging rooms in my house. I am also a keen supporter of shopping small and spending time in local businesses.
