"I would highly recommend Elaine for her professional approach and communication. She showed an excellent understanding of both the role and the client’s needs which has ensured, even in such trying times, that my interest has never waned."
"The Inspire Selection Higher Education team conducted a successful international search assignment for us for a Dean. The speed of response, communication throughout and the overall service was very positive which meant that we then worked with Elaine and her team on a range of senior Faculty hires.
