About Karen Camilleri

Karen Camilleri, owner and Managing Director, set up Camilleri Appointments because she had a strong desire to use her extensive experience of working for big recruitment companies and apply it differently. She wanted to step away from the need to adhere to a rigid structure and to take the emphasis away from meeting revenue targets and place it on delivering positive outcomes for all involved. She wanted to understand what organisations and those seeking work needed and she wanted to work with them to come up with solutions they valued and could get the most benefit from.

Karen is now an Ambassador to Radical Recruit that support disadvantaged people into work, a sponsor and mentor for Women in Transport.
