Jason Sellyn

Director

In a nutshell: Glasgow to Melbourne was a big move but now I'm settled with my wife, three amazing sons and fantastic business I can't imagine ever going back. When founding TwoScots I was looking for a workplace which would become more than just that and would serve to shake up industries and help people thrive.

Ambitions: Keep growing and sharing our thriving brand and share it with as many people as possible.

Director

In a nutshell: You'll know when you've hit on a subject I'm passionate about; my whole demeanor lights up and I can talk forever. TwoScots fits that category perfectly. Born from a desire to break the stigma of recruitment and offer a service which was a wee bit different, it's surpassed my expectations and I'm proud to have created a business that feels more like an extended family.

Ambitions: To continue to grow and share the TwoScots brand with my team and really influence the recruitment industry.

In a nutshell: As TwoScots first employee, I'm certainly part of the furniture. I spent 2020 on maternity leave with my first beautiful baby, Lenny, but now I'm back to work alongside you and crack the champagne on a Friday!

Ambitions: To continue to grow the TwoScots team, it's more than just my workplace after ten amazing years.

Kieran Spillane

Kieran Spillane

Associate Director | Accounting and Finance

In a nutshell: So it turns out Summer Bay doesn't actually exist, but that hasn't quite tainted my Australian experience having moved from Ireland in 2019. I've always loved all things sport, music and animals so Melbourne is a dream as is my leadership role where I can work across and influence multiple disciplines.

Ambitions: To own three dogs, beat James in table tennis and watch Essendon win the Grand Final. Oh, also to continue to grow and nurture my teams, I'm in for the long haul.

In a nutshell: I'm driven by challenge and collaboration; it's why I love TwoScots. The culture and the relationships here enable me to lead my team, succeed and continue to visit my beloved Yarra Valley wineries at regular intervals! Coming from small town Northern Ireland, I love to take in every experience on offer so you'll find me riverside with a glass of fizz or in Sydney visiting friends.

Ambitions: Be able to support my team to thrive in a safe way all whilst creating long-term relationships in the Melbourne market.

Mark Louwen

Mark Louwen

Business Manager | Senior Finance

In a nutshell:My pathway into the recruitment industry was a little different from the usual; getting to love the industry after running membership and partnerships for the recruitment, consulting and staffing association. I chose TwoScots because they share my core ethos for building relationships and truly consulting all whilst staying at the edge of change in the industry.

Ambitions: To continue to influence and contribute to the recruitment industry whilst continuing to lead as a specialist in the senior finance space.

Emily Whitehead

Emily Whitehead

Marketing Manager

In a nutshell: What's the best way to scare your parents? Call them from your holiday in Thailand to say you're not coming home. Well, that was me! Since moving from windy Lancashire to Melbourne, via four months in Asia, I've been working with innovative brands and striving to shake up the industries they exist in.

Ambitions: To make more waves for TwoScots whilst continuing to learn. I'd also love to write a best selling novel and be awarded the Booker Prize - no point in dreaming small!

In a nutshell: At TwoScots I'm known as the go-to guru. Whether you're after a decent soccer player, a technology whiz or even a T-Shirt designer - I can cover you! I'm a bit of a unicorn being both extremely process driven whilst possessing a strong creative flair. Outside work you'll find me on the futsal court or in the midst of nature...eating a whole pizza to myself.

Ambitions: To keep learning whilst taking on more responsibility and diverse projects, I really thrive on variety and adventure.

Annabel Mitchell-Heggs

Annabel Mitchell-Heggs

Business Manager

In a nutshell: I'm the epitome of a people person. I thrive in a social setting where I can share opportunities and enrich experiences, it's why I got into recruitment in the first place. I moved to Melbourne from London seeking beachside adventures and the challenge of agency recruitment after starting my career on the internal side.

Ambitions: To grow my division to the level in which I create new opportunities for others and myself - Melbourne and TwoScots are both my new home!

Get in touch with me today at [email protected] or 03 8614 2407

Sophie Masson

Sophie Masson

Divisional Lead | Temporary Contracts

In a nutshell: I believe experiences are the richest currency you can have. That's why I've worked in my hometown of County Down, in Disneyland Florida, at a camp in Pennsylvania, as well as recruiting in Darwin and Melbourne (plus a stint on a dairy farm!). It's also why I love finding the perfect opportunity and experience to my candidates within my four year recruitment career. I can't wait to share my life experiences in Australia with family and friends in Ireland one day very soon.

Ambitions: To further develop my professional network and ability to intuitively match professionals in Melbourne before advancing to management within TwoScots. Personally, I'd love a puppy to complete my Australian family!

Skye Wilkins

Skye Wilkins

Senior Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: After a long time on the road travelling Australia, joining TwoScots seemed like the perfect career move. Even if my sister is a Director in the business! With 15 years in the recruitment industry, I certainly have enough expertise to help you - whatever it is you need.

Yasmine Shrebati

Yasmine Shrebati

Senior Principal Consultant

In a nutshell:  I'm motivated by growing myself and others around me - if you give me a challenge I'll step up to the mark and nail it everytime, no matter how much work it takes. That's how I got into recruitment; by constantly excelling and being offered new responsibilities until I found the parts that I loved. It's the same with travel, it's always the places you've thought of the least that take your breath away.

Ambitions: To keep on growing, learning and achieving, whilst visiting 50 countries before I turn 30.

Aisling Flynn

Aisling Flynn

Senior Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: My career so far has been a journey. From working as a HR specialist back home in Ireland through to recruiting for some of Australia's biggest household names and don't even mention my stint as a banana sorter! Passion for travel and adventure is what took me up to the bananas in Far North Queensland. Where else? It guided me through Europe by rail, dipped me in Iceland's Blue Lagoons before my final destination of Melbourne and now TwoScots.

Ambitions: Become a go-to expert to my clients, candidates and colleagues and complete my Australian family with a puppy of my own.

Sarah Armstrong

Sarah Armstrong

In a nutshell: Coming over from Cork, my biggest ambition was to travel every landscape in Australia and I'm pretty much there (excluding a much needed trip to Tasmania)! From diving with whalesharks through to Turquoise Bay, even a year in Sydney before finding my home and recruitment career in Melbourne. Now I'm settled here with my boyfriend and kitten I've even started exploring my creative side by DJ-ing.

Hazel Condon

Hazel Condon

Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: When deciding where to go after leaving Limerick, it was down to Melbourne or Milan; but with friends and an envious lifestyle, Melbourne won the day! Friendships and connections have served me well, seeing a housemate in recruitment drew me to my career and then a connection in Limerick introduced me to TwoScots to a culture where I can nurture my ambitions and passion for people.

Ambitions: Become a real specialist in temporary staffing for the finance niche in Melbourne, all whilst travelling Australia and seeing the sights!

Rhys Rubio-Senior

Rhys Rubio-Senior

Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: Recruitment seemed my style immediately; I love to get out, meet and get to know people. It's also why TwoScots seemed just right on moving over from the UK, you can recruit in any agency but it's the people who make it a more interesting place to work.

Ambitions:
Really establish myself as a specialist in the Melbourne finance market - and to retire by 40!

Cara Finnerty

Megan Allen

Megan Allen

Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: Arriving in Australia on Christmas Day in 2019, tired but full of adrenaline, I had no idea what was to come! I did know that I had a ready built community of friends who made it feel like home pretty quickly and managed to step into a career I'd been interested in since finishing my HR Management degree. Again, joining TwoScots felt like the right decision after friends in the business told me about the culture, progression and opportunities on offer.

Ambitions: To bed myself further into my team whilst learning more and more management skills - with a quick stopover in Bali now the borders are open!

In a nutshell: I'm always open to new experiences, whether that's trekking Everest Base Camp, spending six months abroad studying in sunny California or unexpectedly finding a career that I'm passionate about in recruitment. Now I'm in the industry I'm really enjoying the sociable nature of the job as well as the vast opportunities on offer.

Ambitions: To develop my expertise as a go-to recruiter and give any career opportunity a shot! That mixed with a bit more travel sounds perfect.

Michelle Duane

Michelle Duane

Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: Melbourne wasn't my first stop over from my hometown of Galway; with a year-long stint in Greece chasing the weather through to securing more time in Australia via six months in Shepparton, it's been a journey getting here! Now I'm here I'm so happy to be part of TwoScots, a business that makes me feel like that first day in Melbourne, excited for the experience and ready for the challenges ahead.

Ambitions: To influence my own career and that of others, I want to continue to build up my own desk and help people progress through their careers - that's the real reward.

Charlie West

Charlie West

Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: Recruitment was always the career I was aspiring to. So many of my friends in the industry seemed to be successful whilst loving what they did. That's when TwoScots came into the picture, seeing people within a culture that pushed them to be exceptional all whilst having fun at the same time was the perfect mix I was after. On the weekends you'll find me sampling the best Melbourne has to offer with a little bit of DJ-ing on the side!

Ambitions: To be the trusted specialist that people refer their friends and colleagues to, I want building relationships to be my real specialism.

Lucy O’Brien

Lucy O’Brien

Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: I love a challenge, whether it's diving with manta rays or creating my network within TwoScots' renowned payroll division. Recruitment fits my love of talking to people and ultimately being part of their personal journeys and after a recommendation from a previous colleague at TwoScots, I haven't looked back from the collaborative culture.

Ambitions: The payroll division at TwoScots has an incredible reputation and I want to be a core part of that and a real go-to for that market.

Anita Kuklych

Anita Kuklych

Principal Consultant

In a nutshell: As a Bayside girl I don’t think there’s a more perfect day than walking down for a morning by the ocean before sitting down to share a meal and wine with friends. My love for people and guiding them to be the best they can be definitely influenced my step into recruitment as well as the competitive nature, daily challenges and constant variety of the industry.

Ambitions: To be able to mentor and nurture employees - I think I’d make a great manager one day!
