I moved to Rutherford Briant around 2 years ago, having spent the first 6 years of my recruitment career working for a large agency in London. I absolutely loved the time I spent there, however about 5 years in; I realised I wanted, and needed, something different. My life was moving on and I needed my job to adapt with that.

10 years ago, like many school leavers, I had completed my A Levels and was unsure what was next for me.

Work life balance is a word that’s thrown around in job adverts and culture talk with employers but what does it really mean? Because it’s such a personal and subjective concept, it can look completely different from one person to the next. The most important thing is understanding what balance means for you and how it fits into your lifestyle. Back in 2016, when I welcomed my first child, I knew I needed to work for an employer that respected my choices and encouraged me to continue developing at work and achieving career milestones at my own pace, all whilst supporting me in raising a young ...
