Jash Tripathi

Job Titles:
  • Senior Delivery Consultant
Hi I'm Jash, I joined LMA in August 2022. Prior to joining LMA I was a freelance recruiter working within the IT industry for around 2 years. As Lawrence Bossidy quoted, "Nothing we do is more important that hiring and developing people. At the end of the day, you bet on people, not strategies." Hiring the right people for the role is more important and that's where my forte lies. I am currently working on a Finance desk, hiring for Finance and Banking professionals across London and beyond. I have a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, specialised in Human Resource Development Management. I decided to attain more exposure in Human Resources by starting at the very core of it - recruitment. I love communicating with people coming from different backgrounds and always take pride on dedicating myself on what I do, to produce the best results. My life is filled with drama and humour, quite literally, when I'm not hiring! I'm a huge fan of cinema and stand up comedy, telling a joke is always a good ice breaker!

Sue Mollison

Job Titles:
  • Consultant
  • Executive
I​'m Sue and I joined LMA in 2008 and I am proud of my achievements within the business as a senior consultant, placing 100's of candidates with some really fantastic clients over the years. I have watched the business blossom under our MD into the highly successful agency it is today and it's been a really great journey along the way. Working within the secretarial division, I work with prestigious clients from all sectors and enjoy amazing working relationships that have developed throughout my career. (I have also recruited in the fast paced banking and finance sectors, which is great preparation for multi-tasking and keeping a cool head!). What I love about LMA as a working mum, is that if I have to dash off to see my son in a school play, I can and that flexibility is something I am very grateful for. A little snapshot about me: I am a mother of the two most amazing boys in the world. (Well I would say that!), but truly they are the most loving and caring children that you could wish for. I am also the biggest animal lover in the company and there is a lot of competition at LMA to hold that badge of honour! I won, when I rang my Director to tell her I would be late for work as I was directing a fireman in getting a cat down from a roof! (I couldn't leave for work until I knew he was safe and sound and he consequently calmly jumped off the roof, when the fireman's ladder went up!)….red faces followed….
