Multi-sector recruiter Cummins Mellor Recruitment has appointed Caroline Medcalfe as a permanent recruiter focusing on professional accountancy and legal markets.

Medcalfe previously spent several years as managing consultant for Anakin Seal in Manchester.

Managing director Richard Mellor says: “After hearing various solicitors and accountants bemoan the fact that it was difficult to get hold of good quality support staff, we decided there was a gap in the market and decided to take on board an experienced recruiter. Caroline is a great asset to the company and we have been lucky to find her.”
