New independent recruitment firm “with personality” opens in Yorkshire

Blonde Brown, a new recruitment firm specialising in contract and permanent positions, has launched in Yorkshire.

Set up by Charlotte Watson and Kate Chandan, the company will operate nationally to match people with businesses across a range of sectors including accountancy and finance, engineering and manufacturing, hospitality, retail, human resources, logistics, and sales and marketing.

Collectively, Charlotte and Kate have a storied history in the industry, spanning over 20 years, managing the recruitment process on behalf of independent employers through to blue chip organisations from junior positions to management and board appointments.

For businesses seeking to expand teams, Blonde Brown offers a bespoke recruitment process that will help secure the desired talent.

Charlotte Watson, founder and director of Blonde Brown Recruitment, commented: “The UK labour market is experiencing unprecedented times following the aftermath of Brexit and the ongoing pandemic.

“Businesses across many sectors are struggling to recruit staff or fill long-term vacant roles. It’s very much a candidate-led industry as people who were either furloughed or made redundant over the last 18-months and took on temporary positions as a stop gap are now seeking new roles.

“It’s an exciting time to be launching Blonde Brown and we’re looking forward to working with local businesses in a bid to support their recruitment needs.”
