Client Requirement

Recruiting a Senior HR Advisor within the care sector posed a challenge for Prosperity Children’s Services.

The organisation identified the need to appoint a key HR support role to assist Sara Pendlebury, who was recently recruited through HR Recruit, as Head of HR of Prosperity Children’s Services.

The role required not only strong HR knowledge but also the right personality and cultural alignment to thrive in a sensitive and demanding environment. With growth on the horizon, the organisation needed to move quickly to secure the right person and avoid disruption to its HR operations.

Reflecting on the need, Sara emphasised the importance of finding a recruitment partner who could deliver efficiently and effectively, providing candidates who matched both the technical and cultural requirements of the role.

In addition, when their L&D Manager resigned due to personal circumstances, Prosperity reviewed the role and opted instead to hire a Training Assessor. Again, speed and cultural fit were essential to ensure minimal disruption to their learning and development function.
