It's never too late for a proper welcome ☕️

Last week, our Finance Recruitment team (and Legal Recruitment Specialist, Ciaran Gallagher) recently headed to Neighbourhood Café for lunch to welcome Sean Reffell and Jordan Brown to VANRATH.

They’ve actually been with us for a few weeks now, but with busy diaries and getting stuck into their new roles, we’re only just getting round to the proper welcome (but better late than never!)

It was a great chance to step away from the day-to-day, catch up as a team and get to know Sean and Jordan a little better.

Welcome to the team, Sean and Jordan. We’re delighted to have you both on board, you're both killing it already!

We the week with a bit of a reset 🧘‍♀️

On Monday morning, some of our team took part in a 9D Breathwork session with Kelly Nixon, who some of you may remember from her time as a Senior Tech Recruitment Specialist here at VANRATH.

Kelly has since taken a completely different path, launching her own business, , and we were delighted to welcome her back to the office to give the team a taste of what she does.

The 30-minute immersive session combined guided breathing, visualisation and 9D spatial audio, with a focus on clearing mental noise, improving focus and getting into a more energised, focused state. 🎧

It was certainly a different way to start a Monday morning, and a great opportunity for the team to step away from the usual routine, switch off for a while and try something new.

It's also been brilliant to see what Kelly has built since her time at VANRATH. From recruitment to running her own wellbeing business, she's taken a completely new direction and we're delighted to have been able to experience it first-hand.

Thank you for this incredible session, Kelly!

VANRATH is proud to be Diversity Mark accredited – But what does that actually mean?

For us, becoming accredited was about taking a proper look at our approach to diversity and inclusion and identifying where we can continue to improve.

The Diversity Mark accreditation process gives organisations a clear framework to work against, with goals, actions and accountability. Our approach is independently assessed, giving us an opportunity to challenge what we're doing, listen to different perspectives and identify areas where we can make progress.

As a recruitment business, diversity and inclusion is particularly important to us. We work with people from a wide range of backgrounds every day, helping candidates find their next opportunity and supporting employers with their hiring.

That means we have a responsibility to think about how inclusive our own workplace is, as well as how we can help our clients build more diverse teams.

We're pleased to be part of the Diversity Mark community and we're looking forward to continuing that work.

Thank you to Diversity Mark for the support and guidance throughout the process. 💛

What a week it was for Belfast. 🎶

Last week, Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann brought more than one million people to Belfast, filling the city’s streets with music, dancing, culture, food, drink and plenty of craic.

It was also a huge boost for the local economy, with initial estimates suggesting the Fleadh brought an additional £53 million into Belfast. 💸

And we couldn’t let the week pass without getting involved ourselves so we finished up a little early on Thursday and headed to The Donegal to soak up some of the Fleadh's atmosphere with the team. It was great to see the city buzzing around us.

The Fleadh showcased Belfast at its best, bringing people together from across the world and giving local businesses a fantastic boost. A million visitors, £53 million for the local economy and a week full of music, culture and craic. We were very glad to be part of it. 🎻🍻

Can't wait until 2027 to do it all over again!

Happy 40th Birthday to our brilliant Senior Tech Recruitment Specialist, Jennifer Curran! 🎉

Anyone who knows Jennifer knows she's always up for a laugh and brings great energy wherever she goes. We're lucky to have her as part of the team, and even luckier that we get to celebrate such a big milestone with her today.

We hope you have an amazing day celebrating this milestone and that your 40th is filled with plenty of good food, great company and a well-deserved celebration.

Looking forward to heading out together this afternoon as a team to soak up the atmosphere of the Fleadh and enjoy a few drinks! 🍻

Happy Birthday from all of us at VANRATH! 🎂🥳

Last Friday, a few of the team got together to give our colleague, Ethan Boylan, a proper send-off ahead of his move to Dubai. ✈️

We even had a few familiar faces join us again, with some former VANRATH employees coming along for some drinks!

Over the years, we've heard the same thing time and time again from people who have worked at VANRATH: "I've made friends for life here." showing that the friendships you build here don't end when you leave.

Or maybe everyone just heard that Barbara McKiernan was buying the first round... 🤔

Either way, we're proud of the culture we've built over the years. Recruitment can be a challenging industry, but it's a lot more enjoyable when you get to work alongside people you genuinely get on with.

If you're looking for more than just a job, we're currently hiring across a number of specialist recruitment roles. Learn more about us here: https://lnkd.in/eH8vSYKW

We're delighted to welcome Sean Reffell to VANRATH as our newest Recruitment Specialist!

Sean joins an Accountancy & Finance team with a combined 60+ years of recruitment experience behind it. From market insight and candidate engagement to client partnerships and mentoring, he'll be surrounded by colleagues who have spent decades helping businesses across Northern Ireland secure top talent. 🤝

That collaborative approach is a big part of who we are. We invest heavily in learning and development, encourage knowledge sharing across teams, and make sure every recruiter has the support they need to grow and deliver for clients and candidates alike.

With an experienced support network around him and a team committed to helping one another succeed, Sean is in a great position to build his career in recruitment and continue the high standards our clients and candidates expect from VANRATH. By combining fresh perspectives with decades of experience, we're able to continue delivering the high standards VANRATH has become known for across Northern Ireland.

Before joining the world of recruitment, Sean enjoyed a successful career with Ulster Rugby 🏉, bringing with him the discipline, resilience and team-first mentality that high-performance environments demand. We're already seeing these skills be put into practice at VANRATH and can't wait to see Sean's recruitment expertise grow.

Welcome to the team, Sean!

What better way to kick off a bank holiday weekend than celebrating a fantastic month at VANRATH! ☀️

Last week, we took some time to recognise the hard work, dedication and successes across the business throughout July. The office was filled with plenty of snacks, drinks and a few competitive games before we headed to Bullitt Hotel to round off the celebrations together.

We're incredibly proud of everything the team continues to achieve. From helping businesses find exceptional talent to supporting candidates in taking the next step in their careers, it's the people at VANRATH who make it happen every day.

It was also a bittersweet occasion as we said farewell to our colleague, Ethan Boylan, who is heading off on an exciting new adventure in Dubai. We're grateful for all of his hard work and contributions during his time with us, and we wish him nothing but success in this next chapter. ✈️

As we continue to grow, we're looking to welcome more talented Recruitment Specialists to the team across multiple desks.
