BIO
I’ve been working in the architecture and design industry for more than a decade, recruiting people at all levels for a range of organisations. Originally from New Zealand, I’ve been lucky enough to live and work in six different countries, which has given me great insight into a variety of global job markets and a strong cultural awareness. I’ve had the privilege of recruiting for a number of top architecture and design practices worldwide including Make, Heatherwick Studio, Tom Dixon and Morris + Company. I genuinely love working with creatives and am passionate about the industry: there’s nothing better than finding someone a role which is truly right for them. Whatever the context, I do my best to connect and build strong bonds with people, and feel this has helped me form a holistic approach to recruitment which enables me to support others in finding their own path in life.
As well as travelling, I’m interested in personal development and like to attend different training programmes, workshops and retreats during my free time. I have completed a foundation course in Authentic Relating, which teaches skills like curiosity and empathy to create meaningful human connections, and am currently doing a 10-month immersive NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) Masters Practitioner course to study the psychology of behaviour and the mind. I regularly attend 5Rhythms movement classes, have a strong yoga and meditation practice and love cycling and motorbikes having spent time dirt biking through the Cambodian jungle!

BIO
Back in early 2011 I took a leap into the creative recruitment industry having spent my career to date in the new build and construction environment. Coupled with being a lover of people and the buzz and excitement of recruitment, it didn’t take long before I realised how much I loved being part of the creative world - my career in the architecture and design recruitment industry was born!
After previously serving as Global Director of one of the leading architecture and design recruitment companies, I am well positioned to help lead The Crowd to its successes. My days are spent keeping the ‘wheels well-oiled’ whether leading a strategy meeting, crunching numbers or making cups of tea for the team, you will find me doing my best to ensure the office is a fun but productive place to be.
On a personal level, I’m a bit of a ladette to lady; on a weekend you’ll either find me at a football game singing in the stands, cheering on my team Sheffield United, or out dancing with my friends in my lipstick and heels. I’m a lover of exploration, people, laughing, positivity, seeing others smile and I like to travel a lot to explore the weird and wonderful parts of the world. Although I live in London I’m a born and bred northerner and I try hard to keep my roots - visiting Yorkshire often and baking my Nanna’s northern recipes for anyone and everyone. Finally, and probably most importantly I am totally obsessed with my Yorkshire Terrier; Fifi – we even have matching coats!

BIO
Hi, I’m Corrine, the positively-loud American who loves good conversation and thought-provoking design. I’ve tried to live my life by one simple rule: if you are passionate about it, pursue it. So, at 24, I decided to finally leave my comfort zone, pack my bags, and take a chance on big bad London. I’m now a dog-obsessed East Londoner with a fire in my belly to push the envelope.
I pride myself on taking a people-focused approach into recruitment, a quality I find seriously lacking in the recruitment game. My client management background merged with my appreciation for the creative world have fuelled me to successfully place roles at all levels across architecture, interiors, product, furniture, lighting, and textiles. Rather than trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, I want to genuinely understand you, your needs and what you’re looking for.
When I’m not recruiting the latest and greatest, I can be found wandering the continent, grabbing a drink in a garden, and looking for more dogs to pet.

BIO
My story starts in the beautiful city of Cape Town, South Africa where I was born and bred. I studied Animation - specialising in interiors visualisation - which saw me working for a prestigious architectural practice followed by a pure visualisation studio.
With an itch to travel and experience new things, my husband and I moved over to the UK in 2006 where I continued my visualisation career contracting for various studios in London. When an opportunity presented itself for me to train as a recruiter and focus on the interiors sector, I jumped at the chance to help designers, and serve the industry in an authentic and reliable manner.
Other things you may find interesting; I'm a trained life coach, I've got a very noisy toddler, I love bacon and banana on pizza (best ever!) and I'm typically South African and will BBQ (or braai for my fellow South Africans reading this) at any given opportunity.

BIO
I graduated from the University of York in 2014 with a degree in History of Art; this ignited my passion for art, design and architecture. Since then I have worked in a variety of sales and account management roles with leading product and interior design companies. This experience has given me an insight into the key skills and temperament that is required in these roles and I’m excited to share this with you.
Outside of work I have a love of design and the arts, and I used lockdown to rekindle my passion for illustration. I am fascinated by people and over the past year I have completed an arts psychotherapy course, which has developed my curiosity into what makes people tick and how they express themselves.
I also love travelling, music festivals and trying new restaurants although the past year has rather scuppered these activities!
