Talentedge North, a specialist Finance and HR recruiter, is excited to announce two new senior hires - Nick Savic and Nicole Marsden - to the team.

Part of the wider Talentedge group (which includes offices in London, Dublin and New York), Talentedge North is committed to providing industry expertise and a people-first approach to recruitment for businesses ranging from startups and SMEs to global groups based in the North West.

As it continues its expansion across the region, the addition of Nick and Nicole marks an exciting milestone.

Nick joins as the lead for transactional finance recruitment in Lancashire, bringing a decade of recruitment experience, including five years in internal talent acquisition.

Having worked in both high-volume and niche recruitment environments, he is eager to leverage his expertise to connect businesses with top financial talent and establish a stronghold in the Lancashire market.

Nicole, celebrating her ten-year anniversary in recruitment, takes the helm of the HR division at Talentedge North.

She’ll be working closely with London-based Chris Pestell, Head of HR recruitment for the group, and utilising her extensive network of HR professionals to further strengthen and broaden the reach of the brand’s HR & Talent recruitment offering.

Neil Whitaker, managing director of Talentedge North, said he is 'excited to welcome both Nicole and Nick to the team.

"Having worked previously with Nicole, I know how she genuinely cares about building true relationships with both candidates and clients.

"She brings with her years of HR recruitment experience as well as a strong network. In the office, she brings an energy to our team which is infectious – I’m looking forward to her getting out in front of more Lancashire-based clients in 2025!

"Nick Savic has been brought in to lead our transactional finance offering for Lancashire, he’s already made a strong start and I’m sure he will be a huge success for Talentedge North.”

Danielle Holly, head of the Lancashire Office, said: “I’m thrilled to welcome Nick Savic to the team to support me in servicing our clients in their finance recruitment needs, with me focusing on the qualified market and Nick taking care of anything transactional/part-qualified.

"It’s also great to have Nicole Marsden on board as our HR specialist, adding value to what we can offer our longstanding clients and clients-to-be.

"Their expertise and fresh perspectives will be invaluable as we expand Talentedge North's focus and continue to drive success in new directions.”

With Nick and Nicole on board, Talentedge North is poised for continued growth, delivering even greater value to clients and candidates across the region. Welcome to the team, Nick and Nicole!
