They were looking for a temporary HR Manager to join them and ideally wanted a senior HR Manager who has worked with a mental health/addiction charity. Fortunately due to our expansive networks, we were able to source a candidate who had over 15 years HR Management experience, within 24 hours.
Jo Winstanley was appointed to the post. Jo’s background at Addaction and other mental health organisations made her a strong fit, coupled with her experience of managing large HR teams. Jo has made herself indispensable in the role and is now working as Head of HR at Together on a fixed term contract to bring continuity in a time of change for the charity.
