About Vanessa

Professional Summary

As a Senior Consultant at VMA Group, I specialise in placing top-tier Communications and Corporate Affairs professionals in mid to senior-level roles across Financial Services and B2B.

What did you do before you joined VMA?

I started my recruitment career at two of the world’s largest agencies, where I built a strong foundation recruiting across diverse corporate roles and sectors in APAC. After moving to the UK, I joined VMA Group to bring a more specialist, impact-driven approach to communications recruitment.

Why do your clients enjoy working with you?

With a background in psychology and communications, I match skillsets, personalities, and cultural fits. Having worked across APAC and the UK, I also bring a global perspective and a direct, consultative approach that delivers results.

What do you enjoy most about your job?

I love meeting new, interesting people every day – it keeps things fresh and exciting! Each conversation brings a new challenge, and I thrive on helping people find their next big opportunity.

What are your interests outside of work?

Outside of work, I’m still exploring London. I find myself getting lost in the parks and taking in the stunning buildings - there’s just so much beauty and so many hidden gems in this city.

Client Testimonial

"Vanessa supported me after my redundancy and helped me secure a temporary role during a really uncertain time. She was not only empathetic and understanding, but also had a strong grasp of the market and the roles she was recruiting for. From the start, she made me feel at ease and offered just the right amount of support — always there when I needed her, without being overbearing."
