Four Recruitment has announced its latest senior hire, Helen Jackson who joins the North West recruitment company as commercial director.

Helen’s role will be to drive day to day operational success through Four’s growing team of recruiters and to further expand and develop the team.

Four Recruitment was established in 2008 by brother and sister team Phil and Claire Sofield.  Helen’s appointment is the most senior at the company to date. Her role will enable Claire and Phil to identify and execute key strategic opportunities for the business.

Helen was previously director at another Lancashire based recruitment agency and joins Four with over 12 years experience in the industry.  She commented: “It’s an incredibly exciting time to join Four, Claire and Phil have great plans for the growth of the business and I’m looking forward to being a part of this success.

“I was instantly attracted to the role at Four, because their values as a business are very much aligned to mine, delivering a long-standing, value-added service for clients that reinforces the great value the right recruiter can add to a business.”

Managing director Claire Sofield added: “The past year has been record-breaking at Four. In addition to a continually growing team, new divisions and more product lines, we have also identified other areas of business growth and have a number of exciting plans for the future. Helen’s role will enable us to focus more on these projects and continue expanding the business”.

Added Phil Sofield: “Helen will be a key member of the senior management team, working alongside Claire and I to continue our business growth trajectory. Her knowledge and experience will be a huge asset to our team and we’re delighted to welcome her.”
