New Appointments At The HR Booth | HR Support

Our team has experienced a lot of changes in the last couple of months. This started with an emotional goodbye to the wonderful John Allan who has recently retired from providing HR support. John has made a significant contribution over the years and we know our clients will miss him as much as we do.

As well as this, we welcomed our fantastic new HR support consultant, John Mullen. John has extensive HR experience, having worked in various HR roles. This includes the Royal Air Force, BAE Systems, Queensferry Crossing and other retail and professional services role. John’s role is to support and advise clients of The HR Booth on all aspects of HR. He has settled well into his new role.  With John’s extensive career in all things HR, and we are glad that he chose us to continue to put these skills in to practice.

We have also had the opportunity to introduce Calum to the team who has joined us as our new account manager. Calum has a wealth of experience within recruitment, business development and operational management. He are confident he will add real value to our business. He has previous business development and operational management experience and has worked within the recruitment industry. Calum’s remit is to develop new business opportunities and enhance the recruitment service that The HR Booth offer clients.

Recruitment & HR support

We are delighted to welcome John and Calum to the team. We are overjoyed that both of them have settled into the business extremely well. A number of our clients are experiencing growth.
