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!”

Kerry has been great through my recent hiring process! Professional and organised, she kept in touch through every stage and provided valuable support and feedback! Thanks so much!
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Kerry during my recent job search, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough. From the very beginning, she took the time to properly read through my CV and really understand my skill set—not just on paper, but what I actually do day-to-day. We spoke multiple times, and she was genuinely interested in learning about my experience, the kind of work I enjoy, and what I’m aiming for in my career.
What really stood out to me was how patient and supportive she was throughout the whole process. There was never any pressure, just honest and open communication. She kept in constant touch with updates and made sure I felt informed and reassured every step of the way. It really felt like she was in my corner.
Kerry didn’t just find me a role—she found me a position that fits. One that aligns with my goals, values, and strengths. That’s not easy to come by, and I’m incredibly grateful for the time and effort she put in to make it happen.

I had the incredible pleasure of working with Debbie during my job search, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From our very first conversation, Debbie was incredibly warm, professional, and attentive. She truly took the time to understand my background and goals. Her guidance throughout the process was exceptional.
Debbie was sincere and consistently communicative, always updating me, and advocating on my behalf.
