🌟 Employee Spotlight: Sarah Dickinson 🌟

Powered by Sunny Recruitment

Sarah joined us in July 2018 as a resourcer — and it didn’t take long for us to realise we’d found someone truly exceptional. Her organisation, calm efficiency and natural rapport with candidates meant she quickly stepped into managing our food manufacturing accounts, coordinating staffing, keeping everything on track and giving clients the structure they needed.

Before Sunny, Sarah spent time in Australia as a recruitment administrator and resourcer, where she discovered JobAdder. She introduced it to us in 2019, and it’s been our core system ever since — a contribution that genuinely transformed how we work.

As her career evolved, so did her specialism. Sarah has a remarkable ability to handle technical roles with depth and confidence, and today she is our Biotech & Pharma Specialist — trusted by key clients and known for her thoroughness, insight and steady professionalism.

And then there’s the Sarah we adore outside of the day job:
• 🐾 Dog mum to Ruby and Rusty
• 💛 Met her partner Tom while travelling in Australia
• 🌿 Happiest in the countryside, by the sea, or anywhere outdoors
• 😄 Proud northerner with a brilliant sense of humour

Very soon, she’ll be stepping away briefly as she prepares to welcome baby number two — a beautiful new chapter for her growing family.

Sarah, thank you for everything you bring to Sunny: your expertise, your loyalty, your warmth and your impact. We are so proud to celebrate you today. 💛

🌟 Back from the Women in Business Awards… and bursting with pride 🌟

Our very own Claire Costin didn’t take home the official trophy last night: but let’s be honest, she’s already a champion where it truly counts.

It was great to see some of the votes that Claire received:

💬 “Claire is a fantastic recruitment professional whom I have worked with for over 20 years. Her customer service skills , sales and HR support are first class. She is a fabulous ambassador for women in business and thoroughly deserves this award.”
💬 “Claire is wonderful. She is an excellent recruiter who talks through every aspect of the recruitment process with you and makes sure the role aligns with you perfectly. Claire has such a personal approach and it is always a joy to speak with her.”
💬 “A hard working truly inspirational lady”

And can we also say… she looked absolutely beautiful.
Elegant, confident, and glowing — exactly how a woman who’s earned her stripes should feel.
No trophy? No problem.
Claire’s impact speaks louder than any award.

Here’s to you, Claire — our winner, always. 🍾 🥂

🌍 Energy Security Starts in Pembrokeshire ⚡

If you want a glimpse of the UK’s energy future, look west.
Pembrokeshire sits at the heart of Britain’s energy system — with the Milford Haven Waterway handling around 20% of the UK’s total energy imports. It’s one of the most strategically important energy corridors in the country.

And it’s powered by some major names.
Valero, RWE, South Hook LNG, and Dragon LNG each play a critical role in keeping the UK supplied, balanced and resilient. From Valero’s refining strength, to RWE’s flexible generation at Pembroke Power Station, to the LNG terminals providing essential security of supply — Pembrokeshire keeps the country moving.

Energy security isn’t just about today. It’s about what comes next.
With floating offshore wind, hydrogen projects and the Celtic Freeport accelerating investment, the region is shifting from ‘energy hub’ to ‘energy future’.

At Sunny, we’re proud to support the companies driving this transformation — connecting them with the people who build, operate and grow this vital sector.

The future is being engineered right here.
And it’s looking bright. 💛⚡

🌟 Proud Sponsors of Johnstown U11s 🌟

There’s something genuinely brilliant about watching a team of young players grow week after week.
The Johnstown Under-11s don’t just turn up — they graft, they learn, they bounce back, and they get that little bit better every single game.

A huge shoutout to Lee and Rhys, whose coaching makes all the difference.
Their patience, encouragement and genuine passion for the game give these boys the confidence to try, fail, try again… and keep moving forward. Absolute stars. 👏⚽

And that’s what success really looks like.
Not the scoreline.
Not the trophies.
But the effort, the teamwork, the small wins, and the courage to keep showing up and giving it a go.

Sunny is proud to support a team that plays with heart, grit and joy.
If this is what they’re like at 11… the future looks very bright. 💛

Keep going, lads — and thank you Lee and Rhys for everything you do.

Last week, we had the absolute pleasure of being at all three of the Futureworks job fairs across Pembrokeshire.

It was brilliant meeting so many jobseekers from right across the county, chatting about current roles and the big wave of opportunities coming over the next few years. And our message was simple: jobs are coming — especially in the energy sector!

In the meantime, there’s a huge amount of FREE training available through providers including:

Pembrokeshire College
Neath Port Talbot College
Gower College
Coleg Sir Gâr
Swansea University

Training companies such as Providence Training Ltd

And of course, Futureworks themselves, offering job-ready certifications like FLT and CSCS cards.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat. We’re excited for what’s ahead — and even more excited to support local people into the energy jobs of the future. 🌱✨

LAST CALL FOR VOTES FOR CLAIRE!

Our very own Claire Costin is a finalist in this year’s Women in Business Awards in the Women in HR & Recruitment category — and we couldn’t be prouder. Her nomination is absolutely deserved. 🍾

With 20 years in recruitment under her belt, Claire has built a reputation for genuine expertise and instinct. She listens deeply, understands what great hiring really looks like, and has a gift for attracting and head-hunting the right people for the right teams. From onboarding through to retention, she’s the one you want in your corner — and if Claire doesn’t already know it, it probably isn’t worth knowing. 📖

Outside of work, you’ll find her trotting around “sticky land” on horseback, doting on her beloved rescue dogs, or in a yoga class perfecting her downward dog. 🧘‍♀️ Many of the photos here are treasured memories with her much-missed Andy — little snapshots that show her heart, humour and resilience.❤️

Despite facing an incredibly difficult few years, Claire continues to support the Sunny team with unwavering professionalism, wit and warmth.

The awards ceremony in London is the perfect chance to celebrate this snazzy, sparkly, unstoppable lady — and we’ve no doubt she’ll be the belle of the ball. Let’s help her bring that award home. 🍾

💛 How to Protect Team Morale During Recruitment Delays

Recruitment delays happen — approvals, budgets, market shifts, unexpected curveballs. But your team still has a job to do, and how you support them during the wait makes a huge difference.

Here are a few simple ways to keep morale steady:

☎️ Communicate early and often. Even if the update is “We’re still waiting,” people feel reassured when they’re kept in the loop.
🙏 Acknowledge the extra load. A genuine thank-you carries more weight than you think.
📋 Prioritise what really matters. Take something off their plate — even temporarily — so the pressure doesn’t build.
👉 Involve the team in the plan. Ask what tasks could pause, where support is needed, and what’s realistic.
🍾 Celebrate small wins. When progress feels slow, recognising effort keeps motivation alive.

Delays don’t have to drain energy — handled well, they can actually strengthen trust and show your team you’ve got their back.

If you need help managing gaps, unexpected vacancies or future talent planning, Sunny is always here to support. 🌞

🌿 We’re Exhibiting at the Green Economy Conference & Exhibition 2025! 🌿

📍 When & Where: Thursday 13 November 2025 | Swansea Building Society Arena, Swansea

Sunny Recruitment is proud to be exhibiting at this year’s Green Economy Conference, bringing together business leaders, innovators and policymakers to shape Wales’ sustainable future.

At the heart of the day will be the Celtic Freeport Panel: “From Vision to Reality”,
The Celtic Freeport is a major green growth initiative spanning Port Talbot and Milford Haven, designed to make South West Wales a hub for clean energy and innovation. Backed by the UK and Welsh Governments, it will attract £8.4 billion in investment, create 11,500 jobs, and drive projects in floating offshore wind, hydrogen, carbon capture, clean steel, and low-carbon logistics. By linking skills, industry and innovation, the Freeport aims to deliver a fair, inclusive transition to a net-zero future for Wales.

We’ll be there to talk about the people side of this transformation — the skills, training and talent needed to power Wales’ green growth story.

Come and find us on the day — we’d love to chat about jobs, opportunities, and how we can help your business grow in the green economy.

How to Make Hybrid Work Work (For Real) 🐶💻

Remember lockdown?
When we all learned DIY, did team quiz’s on zoom … and got dogs. 🐕
Fast forward to now — offices are open, but our four-legged “colleagues” have other ideas. Many of us want the social buzz of the office — but not at the expense of our sanity, fuel costs, or guilty goodbyes at the door.

That’s why hybrid work isn’t just about policies and desk-booking software. It’s about understanding people’s real lives — the dogs, the school runs, the quiet moments that make us more productive.

For HR managers, the challenge (and opportunity) is to move beyond “days in vs days out” and instead design hybrid models that feel genuinely supportive.
💡 A few ideas that are working well include:
• Anchor days — where teams come in together for purpose, not presence.
• Outcome-based performance goals — so trust replaces time sheets.
• Flexible “life moments” policies — because sometimes it’s not the dog; it’s the boiler.
• Pet-friendly offices or ‘paw-ternity’ leave — yes, it’s a thing!

The future of work isn’t remote or office-based — it’s human.
