Can you believe this cactus is 20 years old?🌵

Twenty years ago, for our launch, we sent out mini 3-inch cactus plants to potential clients.

After tackling the challenges of packing, adding sturdy gloves, and marking the boxes 'sharp contents,' we sent out loads.

We also kept one for sentimental value.

And here it is—the one that survived 20 years.

Just like our company, it's still thriving and growing.

Before travelling around Australia I worked for a debt collection agency, but on my return to the UK I decided I needed an exciting new career, so embarked on a career in recruitment.

I'm proud to work at Cactus and be part of a hugely successful team, they work hard and play harder! I can now proudly say that i have 10+ years of recruitment experience both in-house and agency.

My moment of fame was dancing on TV on ‘Children in Need’, when I was 6 years old with ‘Starlight Stage’ and ‘Dance Academy’ and my guilty pleasure is a good old-fashioned musical!

Hi, I am Deren!👋

I have 16 years of recruitment experience in the customer contact industry. I am passionate about building strong, loyal client relationships and love working in a fast-paced environment. But I am not only about delivering talent to my clients but also opportunities to my candidates.

I love spending time with my kids and going on adventures. My simple pleasures are golf, nice cup of coffee and delicious food.

I would be described as very easy going, quick to make connections and constantly on the move ..I guess that would explain the house full of kids, dogs and cats! But hey, at least it’s always fun!

Originally my career started in London for a large FTSE100 company on one of their online lead generation campaigns.

I moved back to Worcester to start a family and I was introduced to Francesca and Guy who were on the look out for a charming, professional and self-assured individual with bags of energy.. but everyone was busy so they hired me!! I’ve been with Cactus ever since and now have over 14 years of recruitment experience!

People would be surprised to know that I have a degree in dance and drama and I'm scared of the dark! My guilty pleasure is peanut butter and cherry jam sandwiches, which I work off by cycling 3 miles to work every morning and a gym session in my lunch break.

🌟I’m Zakirah Paima a client success, new business developer with green blood on a mission. I have 6 years of experience as a Customer Success Manager and another 3 in Sales and Business Development.

I am passionate about nurturing success with a unique touch. I would be described as an ‘Out of the box’ thinker crafting a life filled with love, purpose and originality.

I’m also a ‘foodie’ by day, car enthusiast by choice, I love to sew, and I am a proud momma of one adorable sidekick. When the day winds down, catch me wrapped up in a cozy blanket, diving into a world of K-dramas, crime thrills, and lovey-dovey romances.

I fell into Customer Contact recruitment at the young age of 21.

My professional experience began in a recruitment company that provided me with many experiences and taught me a great deal. The corporate life had its advantages, it provided me with an insight into how large corporations’ work. This created the itch of having my own business and Francesca and I founding Cactus seemed like a natural progression. Having been asked many times over the years, where the name ‘Cactus’ came from, we can confirm it was the result of a good old brainstorming in a bar!

I consider myself fortunate to have made some fantastic friends and the pleasure of working with diverse companies and individuals, not to mention some candidates, whom I have had the pleasure to represent several times, helping them on their journey.

Outside of work, I am constantly on the go. I love spending time with my family, whether it’s doing some work around the house or playing some sports, I just like to keep active.

I started my work journey with a short run in marketing, later moving into the world of recruitment.

It all began within the IT sector when fax machines were doing the job that today's emails are. I later moved to Capita to head up the Customer Contact volume resourcing business, where I met my co-director Guy. A few years later, we brainstormed the idea of founding Cactus Search.

I am certainly not shy and retiring, quite the opposite I lead from the front. I'm a consultant at heart and in addition to leading some of the more senior search assignments, I also support the team with the delivery of all our volume resourcing projects.

My family is my most proud achievement! With my husband, twin boys and Bodhi my dog I’m totally outnumbered, but I love every minute!

I worked in temporary/permanent recruitment for the best part of 6 years before joining Cactus. Having previously worked in a customer contact environment before embarking on a career in recruitment has helped me gain a greater understanding of the industry. I can now proudly say that due to all this insight and experience, I have thrived in my career at Cactus for the past 7 years.

I would be described as making the impossible, possible! I have an easy-going positive personality, which serves me well when establishing relationships with both clients and candidates. My glass is always ‘half-full’!

Outside of work, I spend my time with my two kids and my wife. My weekday nights are occupied with playing football as a striker or trying to watch Manchester United/Wolves while looking after my boys.
