Meet The Team
Gaynor Lowndes
With
20 years of extensive experience as a top-billing consultant
in both Australia and the UK, Gaynor Lowndes has a first-rate
understanding of the recruitment industry and it’s
challenges. Her strengths lie in her passion, tenacity
and her commitment to providing beneficial and innovative
solutions.
Commencing her career with a large multi-national firm,
specialising in the recruitment of accounting staff, Gaynor
quickly climbed the ranks from consultant to senior consultant
to branch manager. She then worked in the UK for the parent
company for 4 years as senior consultant and business development
manager, consistently outperforming her peers, and developing
a standing as one of the top billers in the highly competitive
UK industry.
Returning to Australia in 1993, Gaynor set up an Accounting
Division for a large national firm. After a highly successful
tenure as a training and professional development specialist
with the National Institute of Accountants, Gaynor began
developing and delivering training programs on sales techniques
and the recruitment process.
In April 2001, Gaynor set up The Recruitment Training
Company in response to a desperate need for training and
professional development within the industry, which she
had observed in her time as a manager. Since its inception,
TRTC has trained hundreds of recruiters throughout Australia
and NZ, and has been hailed as the definitive provider
of training solutions to the recruitment industry.
In July 2004, Gaynor published her first book, “The
Art of Recruitment,” which has been hailed as the
recruiters bible within Australia, NZ and the UK. Gaynor
is regularly published in Recruitment trade publications
in Australia and the UK.
As well as training, Gaynor consults to recruitment businesses
on a regular basis which allows her the opportunity to
keep up to date with the market. In addition, she is an
accredited performance coach who specializes in helping
high performers reach their potential (www.GaynorLowndes.com).
Gaynor believes her calling in the recruitment industry
goes further than her role as a trainer. The Recruitment
Training Company is about inspiring and encouraging the
professionals within our industry to be the best that they
can be,” she says. I see the skills development and
training we offer as essential ‘tools’ to help
us fulfill this greater purpose. |
