Ashleigh Curwood

Ashleigh kickstarted her career in Recruitment in 2022 at Express Recruitment as a Recruitment Assistant then was shortly promoted to Assistant to the Technical Team, which specialises in recruiting for the IT and Engineering sectors within the East Midlands.

Prior to Express Recruitment, Ashleigh’s previous experience was working with children in care to deliver employability courses to help young people obtain work experience, placements, apprenticeships and part time jobs. As much as she enjoyed this role, she felt that she was missing a fast paced environment and therefore, took the leap into full time Recruitment.

Ashleigh joined Atkins Search as a Trainee Recruitment Consultant to progress her skills within Recruitment and utilise her current knowledge of Engineering recruitment to the team. Ashleigh is working alongside Jade Stevenson in the Permanent Construction Team, to focus on placing Construction professionals into reputable Main Contractors across the East Midlands, West Midlands and South Yorkshire on a permanent basis.

Outside of work, Ashleigh prides herself as being quite the gym rat, an avid Nottingham Forest fan and has played football herself since the age of 10. Before playing Sunday league football, Ashleigh spent numerous years playing in academy football teams for the likes of Nottingham Forest and Leicester Ladies. Ashleigh also enjoys spending quality time with friends and family and wouldn’t say no to a drink in a beer garden in the sun!
