Your work: It’s more than just a job

It’s about facing challenges you’re not convinced you’re ready for — and overcoming them almost every time. It’s about the people you meet along the way. It’s about making a positive impact not just on your own life and the lives of those you love, but on the world around you. 

It really is THAT important. And that’s exactly why I do what I do.

Over 20 or so years of recruitment experience, I’ve seen firsthand what happens when extraordinary people are matched with extraordinary roles. I’ve seen how businesses begin to innovate like never before and how leadership-led organisational culture changes create workplaces that make people actually look forward to Monday mornings! I’ve seen productivity soar when companies commit to true diversity and inclusion recruitment processes. And I’ve seen how people thrive, grow, and accomplish things beyond their greatest ambitions when they finally find the right role.

And it never gets old. Which is why I founded JP Executive Search Ltd, to ensure I have the privilege of making even more of these extraordinary matches.

Our commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion 

DEI isn’t just a box to tick, or a knee-jerk reaction to a social trend — having a strong DEI policy integrated into your recruitment processes is the best way to ensure your organisation thrives, now and in the future.

A diverse range of people, perspectives, and beliefs leads to a far more productive and representative work culture; diversity drives efficiency, productivity, and innovation. Above all, it makes a real difference to the lives of the people your organisation serves, both externally and internally.

So we’re committed to working with organisations that are similarly interested in making DEI more than an exercise in box-ticking. And we ensure that all of the recruitment processes at JP Executive Search are administered without prejudice, using a fair and evidence-based methodology, so that we attract and represent a truly diverse pool of senior leadership talent.

With a BSc Hons in Psychology, Jacqui knows people, what makes them tick, and how to help them find what they’re looking for. She’s spent the last 20 years putting this knowledge to good use, helping countless people throughout the UK and overseas to find the right talent and roles, across a wide variety of sectors.

Founding Director, Jacqui Paterson

With 10 years of recruitment experience in each, she now specialises in the fields of Accountancy and Finance and Procurement and Supply Chain. Jacqui spent 12 years working for a global Nasdaq-listed search company, where she assumed leadership responsibility for a number of teams, before moving to a highly-reputable Scottish Boutique Executive search business.

Jacqui believes it’s never too early to find your ideal career.

JP Executive Search Ltd was founded on the principles of fairness, diversity, and inclusion and this is something that Jacqui carries beyond her business.

She has supported the Scottish Government Campaign, Procurement People of Tomorrow, and spends her free time volunteering in primary schools, high schools, and universities, advising young people on the career potential of her areas of specialism: Accountancy and Procurement. She loves nothing more than encouraging under-represented people into these rewarding industries and providing them with career and CV advice.
