Lorraine Pratap's Story
I started my career as an assistant accountant for a manufacturing business in Northern Ireland.
I joined Hays in 1994 and specialised in practice and taxation recruitment across Yorkshire, progressing to a senior management position. Many of my old clients will remember me as Lorraine Partridge!
Hays has the reputation for being the market leader for recruitment training and I was responsible for the delivery of training to all professional service consultants across the North.
In recent years I have worked as a freelance trainer in the recruitment sector, a work placement officer at an FE College and a support worker for young adults in Doncaster.
