HR, Admin & Finance
R&D / Scientific
These three departments—Human Resources (HR), Administration (Admin), and Finance—are critical to the smooth operation and success of any organisation. Each has distinct responsibilities but often collaborates to ensure organisational efficiency and sustainability.
HR is responsible for managing an organisation’s workforce, fostering a positive work culture, and aligning employee performance with company goals. The Admin department focuses on providing logistical and operational support to ensure the business functions effectively. The Finance department manages the organisation’s financial health, ensuring sustainable growth and compliance with financial regulations.
“It has been a really great experience working with the Carrot Recruitment team during my recent job application process. My consultant was always approachable and available to answer questions and keep me up-to-date and informed on next steps. He was also very knowledgeable about the role and company who were recruiting. Would happily recommend!”

I had a great experience working with Chris Newall at Carrot Recruitment. I messaged him on LinkedIn about a business development role he posted, and he gave me a call within half an hour — super responsive from the very beginning.
Chris set everything up for the first role and kept me in the loop throughout, even though the process ended up dragging on with lots of delays and no real updates. Rather than leave me hanging, he got in touch about another business development role that turned out to be a much better fit. We scheduled all three rounds of interviews in under a week, and I ended up accepting the offer.
Throughout both processes, Chris was incredibly helpful — giving me useful tips for interviews and tasks, and just being really easy to talk to. If you’re job hunting and want someone who genuinely has your back, I’d highly recommend Chris and Carrot Recruitment.
Chris found a suitable new role for me and kept me updated throughout the process. Professional and efficient, good communication.
Louise was very friendly, helped explained all the in's and out's of the process and was very knowledgable.
She streamlined the process and sent remainders the whole way.
I fully recommend the services of Carrot Recruitment.
I had a fantastic experience with Hannah Hall at Carrot Recruitment and am so grateful for her support in securing my new role. She was professional, attentive, and genuinely committed to finding the right opportunity for me, taking the time to understand my background and career goals. Her clear, consistent communication, interview prep advice, and honest feedback made the entire process smooth and encouraging. Thanks to her dedication, I’ve landed a role I’m truly excited about, and I highly recommend Carrot Recruitment to anyone.
I cannot recommend Kerry from Carrot enough! From our first chat, she took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and guided me through every step of the process without any fuss. If you want a recruiter who listens and gets results, Carrot is your go-to.
Absolutely fantastic experience from the moment I was contacted about the role. The guidance and support through the application interview process was invaluable and I feel my recruiter genuinely cared about me and making sure my best interests were protected.
I can honestly say when I worked with Matt he really set the bar for what a recruiter should be. He was heavily involved and offered above and beyond support, information & guidance. I couldn't recommend him enough and only wish we had connected sooner in my career.
Clare was great during the recruitment process in helping me secure a new role - she gave really helpful guidance of what to expect at every stage and kept me updated regularly with any developments. I would definitely recommend using Carrot Recruitment if you are looking for a medical communications role.
Working with Clare Davin during my job search was an incredibly positive experience.
From the start, she was personable, highly responsive, and genuinely supportive. Clare not only provided valuable feedback and direction but also consistently kept me informed at every stage of the process. Her advocacy and expertise made a significant difference, ensuring I felt confident and prepared throughout.
Thanks to Clare’s guidance and efforts, I was able to secure an exciting new role at a great company.
