Every day at Annapurna is different and exciting for me, the last 2 years in the company have allowed me to develop and grow, not only professionally but personally as well. As a team, we are always all willing to support each other. I am a sucker for a great culture and environment when it comes to a workplace, there needs to be a winning combination between succeeding in your task and having good fun... and you surely can't miss it here at Annapurna (especially on Fridays)!

The training here has been second to none. The team provides 1-1 coaching as well as live sessions and online modules. Can't recommend it enough!

Coming from a recruitment company that did not value teamwork, mental health, or a positive culture, I was beyond impressed with the environment here at Annapurna. I cannot speak highly enough about the inclusive culture that makes recruitment enjoyable on a daily basis!

Over the past 3 years, Annapurna has allowed me to grow into the role and really develop my skill set having worked initially within internal recruitment before moving to the search side. The training has really helped me, the progression has been rewarding and the culture is fantastic. This early in my career to be sat across the table from CEOs, MDs, HRDs etc and working with them has been a brilliant education in business generally. I love getting involved in our socials and sporting activities like football, yoga and running the London Marathon for one of our Annapurna Giving Charities. Obviously, I'm always aspiring to hit the high achiever trips!
