  Rob Pearson Group Director

  I began my career working within the Small Business Services division of an international bank in the City.

  Realising that my desire to help people wasn’t being fulfilled, I decided to change careers and joined a national high street recruitment agency in 2001.

  I worked my way up and quickly became a key member of the team. My determination to match the right candidates with the roles that my clients entrusted to me led me to become one of the firm’s top recruiters, establishing relationships with clients that I still enjoy today.

  Believing that a better service could be provided and armed with invaluable industry insight and experience, I made the decision to start up my own agency. In 2004 I partnered with my trusted colleague Gaynor Whiffin and so Pearson Whiffin was born.

  A lot has changed since those early days, we’ve grown in number, developed the agency into a group of specialist divisions and become one of the most respected agencies in Kent. As Chairman, I put the success of Pearson Whiffin down to the founding principles that we ‘always provide a first class service from start to finish’ and operate honestly and openly with both candidates and clients alike, principles that I continue to in-still in the entire team at Pearson Whiffin.

  I’ve been working in the recruitment industry since 2002 and experienced almost instant success. I started out working for a global agency, finishing 2nd in the UK for performance and billings, covering the Kent market.

  Promotion quickly followed and, as Business Manager, I headed up 5 specialist divisions; Accountancy, HR, Marketing, Purchasing and Business support and grew the business into a Top 10 UK Branch and Number 1 in the South region.

  In 2011, Rob and Gaynor approached me to join Pearson Whiffin as a Business Partner to set up the Accounts & Finance Division. There was an instant rapport between the three of us and a shared focus to deliver an honest first class service.

  After growing the division to a reputable, well known Accountancy & Finance specialist in the Kent market, in 2015 it was unanimously decided that I join Rob & Gaynor as Partner in the group business.

  I work as a ‘hands-on’ active Director, to ensure our staff have all the support and guidance they need, giving our candidates and clients the best possible recruitment experience.

I then made the decision to move into the Kent marketplace following the successful completion of an English Literature degree at Kent University, so took a role with a well-known mid-Kent based agency as a consultant specialising in the supply of temporary Business Support staff before finally joining the Pearson Whiffin Recruitment Group in 2013.
