Rebecca Laney
  • Founder and Senior Recruitment Partner

    It all began with an idea — to make recruitment more personal.

    For me, that means going beyond CVs and job descriptions. It’s about truly understanding people — their skills, their values, and the environments where they’ll thrive. I’ve always believed that quality and service should go above and beyond, and that the right hire isn’t just about capability, it’s about culture, team fit, and long-term success.

    The People Society was founded on this belief: that when recruitment is done with care, attention, and integrity, everyone benefits — clients, candidates, and the wider community
