Katie Insley
Katie champions Human Resources and has an extensive network that has accumulated over her 16 years of HR recruitment experience.
She is very passionate about the function and has seen it evolve from a transactional purpose to a discipline that now has a seat on the board in many companies.
Katie continues to fight for HR’s importance and strongly believes that, without the right people in the organisation, the business is never going to be successful – you must get your people strategy right.
Placing the candidate’s journey and experience at the heart of her role, she adopts a relationship and people-first approach, getting to know people at an in-depth level and delving into their skills and motivations.
For Katie, people are more than just a CV. She is highly skilled in providing career consultations, enabling her to support professionals find the right HR jobs throughout each career move.
Katie has hosted events, such as CHRO dinners and webinars, to bring the senior HR community in the Netherlands together and facilitate discussions on trending topics.

Testimonial
Katie did an amazing job of first identifying what I truly wanted as a next step in my career and then nudged me in the right direction (even when I wasn’t sure it was the right spot!) into a position I’m really excited about.
On top of this, Katie was very responsive throughout the entire process from start to finish (even checking in on me during my resignation week and long after I would consider typical from a recruiter); professional but also personable - exactly the kind of person I like working with.
I would absolutely recommend anyone to reach out for a chat with Katie if you’re looking for a next step.
