That experience has given me a deep understanding of the commercial and workforce challenges recruiters face, and today I\u2019m taking that knowledge and experience to the international stage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My focus is supporting UK recruitment businesses looking to enter, grow and service their clients across AMER, LATAM, EMEA and APAC, providing access to the workforce infrastructure, compliance expertise and local capabilities needed to turn international opportunities into sustainable growth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Director of Business Development<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":48751,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":true,"content-type":""},"sme-category":[33,35],"class_list":["post-48750","expert","type-expert","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","sme-category-americas","sme-category-emea"],"acf":{"your_title":"Director of Business Development","your_email":"","your_phone_number":"","linkedin_profile_url":"https:\/\/uk.linkedin.com\/in\/ashley-olliver-9b69349","meet_with_me":"https:\/\/meetings.hubspot.com\/ashley-olliver?uuid=963cebd5-d1f5-4847-806c-cfd7c3b6800c","thought_leadership":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.contractoruk.com\/author\/ashley_olliver\">Ashley Olliver | Contractor UK<\/a>","three_fun_facts_about_me":"1) I'm an avid Aston Villa fan albeit I'm more of an armchair fan these days!\r\n2) I used to play semi-professional rugby for Birkenhead Park\r\n3) I keep quails!","whats_a_hobby_or_interest_youve_always_wanted_to_pursue_but_havent_had_the_chance_to_yet":"Golf! \u26f3\r\n\r\nI\u2019ve always wanted to properly learn how to play. I\u2019ve tried my hand at it and even went as far as having private lessons, so you can\u2019t say I haven\u2019t made an effort!\r\n\r\nFor one reason or another, life always seems to get in the way\u2026 although, if I\u2019m being completely honest, that\u2019s probably just the excuse I use. The reality is I\u2019m seriously lacking in finesse, patience and possibly natural ability! \ud83d\ude02\r\n\r\nStill, I haven\u2019t officially given up. One day I might even make it around 18 holes without losing my temper, my ball, or both!","if_you_could_eat_one_type_of_cuisine_for_the_rest_of_your_life_what_would_it_be":"Sunday roast dinners. I\u2019ve thought this through\u2026 possibly too much. \ud83d\ude02\r\n\r\nRoast beef and Yorkshire puddings would be my first choice, but the beauty of a roast is the variety: different meats, veg, roasties, gravy, bread sauce, English mustard, mint sauce. You\u2019re never getting bored.\r\n\r\nI\u2019m also interpreting \u201ccuisine\u201d very generously to include dessert, so my mum\u2019s chocolate bread and butter pudding or pecan pie is coming with me. And naturally, we finish with a cheese board.\r\n\r\nAt this point, I\u2019m not answering an icebreaker. I\u2019m negotiating the terms of my lifelong food contract.","whats_the_best_piece_of_career_advice_youve_ever_received_and_who_gave_it_to_you":"Be yourself. Be honest. Stay humble. And always be kind.\r\n\r\nIt might not sound like groundbreaking career advice, but it\u2019s probably the advice that has stayed with me the most. Careers have plenty of ups and downs, but people tend to remember how you made them feel long after they\u2019ve forgotten your job title.\r\n\r\nAs for who gave it to me, I\u2019d probably say it\u2019s less advice from one particular person and more something I\u2019ve learned from the people who\u2019ve influenced me throughout my career and life.","if_you_could_master_any_skill_instantly_what_would_it_be":"Mind reading. 100%.\r\n\r\nJust think of the possibilities. No second-guessing, no mixed signals and no wondering what someone really meant by that email or text message!\r\n\r\nAlthough knowing my luck, I\u2019d master it and immediately realise I never actually wanted to know what everyone was thinking in the first place! \ud83d\ude02","hobbies_books_im_reading_interests":"\u2013 Podcasts\r\n\u2013 Webinars\r\n\u2013 LinkedIn\r\n\u2013 Networking Events\r\n\u2013 Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA)\r\n\u2013 People2.0 Knowledge Base\r\n\u2013 Industry Newsletters","events_for_this_sme":""},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Ashley Olliver &#8211;
