“I am not just a recruiter; I am a catalyst for positive change, driven by the core value of energy and a profound belief in the power of the right attitude.”

“My professional background is a unique fusion of recruitment expertise with a focus on Supply Chain & Logistics, humanitarian work as a Legal representative for unaccompanied refugee minors, and service in the Presidential Guard of Greece.

My connection to recruitment is deeply rooted in my academic background, which includes degrees in Psychology and Human Resources Management. Being bilingual has also been instrumental, enabling me to excel in cross-cultural and professional communication. Communication, for me, is not just a skill; it's a second nature—a bridge that connects people and ideas.

Approach to recruitment

This brings me to my present role at QTC Recruitment. I chose to work at QTC Recruitment because I believe in the company's approach to recruitment. Here, the core values of listening, understanding, and prioritising quality take precedence. It's a place where I can truly make a difference, not only by finding the right talent for organisations but also by contributing to a culture of excellence.

Creating value in Life Science, to me, goes beyond a professional obligation. It means actively participating in helping organisations find the perfect talent to fortify their teams. Often, these teams are at the forefront of ground-breaking discoveries that have a life-altering impact on individuals and communities. It's a responsibility I embrace with passion and dedication.

The right attitude

Among the core values, "energy" resonates with me the most. Energy isn't just about enthusiasm; it embodies positivity, persistence, honesty, and integrity. It's an attitude that I carry with me every day, knowing that with the right attitude, no problem is insurmountable. It's the driving force that propels me forward, helping me overcome challenges and make a meaningful impact in the world of recruitment.

In summary, my journey consists of diverse experiences, academic knowledge, and commitment to making a difference in the lives of individuals and organisations. I am not just a recruiter; I am a catalyst for positive change, driven by the core value of energy and a profound belief in the power of the right attitude.”
