After nearly 19 years as Managing Director, Matthew Ager will transition into the role of CEO, focusing on strategy, mentoring, and long-term growth, while Chloe Marsh takes the reins of running the business day to day.
This milestone represents both continuity and transformation. By making changes now, Get Recruited is ensuring it continues to deliver the very best service to clients and candidates nationwide by leveraging the latest technology and AI to enhance speed, insight and efficiency, while always retaining the people-focused relationships and human judgement that define exceptional recruitment.
Chloe Marsh: From Recruitment Account Manager to Managing Director
Chloe’s journey with Get Recruited is one of ambition and determination.
Starting her career as an Account Manager, she built her career in Manchester with Get Recruited, progressing from Recruitment Account Manager, Senior Recruitment Consultant, Managing Recruitment Consultant, Divisional Recruitment Manager and Associate Director, before being appointed Managing Director.
Each step of her progression was built on performance, leadership, and her ability to drive results while supporting the people around her.
She is known for combining commercial focus with a genuine commitment to people development. Chloe has successfully led high-performing teams, supported colleagues in their career journeys, and built lasting relationships with clients across the UK.
Her appointment is a natural next step and a clear demonstration of Get Recruited’s belief in promoting and developing talent from within.
A New Vision and Strategy
As Managing Director, Chloe will spearhead a new strategic direction for Get Recruited. Her vision is ambitious yet focused, beginning with the people who make the business what it is today:
Empowering Our Team First – placing our existing consultants and support teams at the heart of our growth strategy. Every team member will have an individual development plan, tailored training, and clear guidance on how to progress their career. This investment ensures our people have the skills, confidence, and opportunities to deliver exceptional results while building long-term, rewarding careers with us, supported by competitive base salaries, enhanced benefits, and additional high commission rewards.
Strategic Key Hires– bringing in senior recruiters and business leaders to add depth to our specialist divisions and to support rapid growth, while ensuring every new hire shares and lives the same vision, values, and commitment to people-focused recruitment that defines Get Recruited.
State-of-the-Art Premises – moving into new offices designed to provide a modern, collaborative, and inspiring environment for our team and clients.
Clear Structures & Career Progression – strengthening our framework so every recruiter at Get Recruited knows their next step, supported by leadership mentoring and structured training pathways.
Enhanced Benefits & Rewards – introducing new benefits and offerings for team members, on top of the already excellent support, wellbeing initiatives, and highly rewarding commissions that have long set Get Recruited apart.
Enhanced Candidate & Client Partnerships – elevating the experience for businesses and professionals who trust Get Recruited with their careers and recruitment needs.
Strengthening Specialist Divisions – Building on our success and expanding our presence in Accountancy & Finance Recruitment, Sales Recruitment, Insurance Recruitment, Marketing Recruitment, and Commercial Recruitment.
Chloe explained:
“My vision is to build on our history of success by creating a business that is future-ready, ambitious, and people-focused. That begins with our existing outstanding team; investing in their development, supporting their success, and giving them the tools they need to thrive. When our people grow, the whole business grows.
Moving into our new premises will be a huge step forward, not just in terms of facilities, but in showing our commitment to growth and innovation. We are proud to be rooted in Manchester and committed to building strong face-to-face relationships here, while continuing to deliver recruitment solutions nationwide to clients and candidates across the UK. I want Get Recruited to be known not only as a leading recruitment agency, but also as a place where our recruiters love to work and clients and candidates know they’ll get exceptional service.
We are building clearly defined career paths, enhancing our training to enable our team to deliver even better results, and improving our benefits for our people. This is all in addition to the fantastic rewards and commissions already in place. We’re creating an environment where success is both achievable and celebrated.”
Building on a Strong Legacy
Matthew Ager’s transition to CEO comes after nearly two decades of shaping Get Recruited into the award-winning agency it is today. Recognised multiple times as Best Recruitment Agency, and with Matthew himself awarded Entrepreneur of the Year, the business has built a reputation for excellence, resilience, and innovation.
Throughout that journey, Get Recruited has successfully navigated major challenges, including the global recession and the Covid-19 pandemic, emerging stronger each time. This proven resilience demonstrates the stability of the business and the secure future it offers our people, our clients, and our candidates.
At the same time, we have continually invested in the latest technologies and tools to ensure that our people, candidates, and clients receive the very best support, experience, and results. This balance of stability and forward-thinking innovation provides the strongest possible foundation for Chloe Marsh’s leadership as Managing Director.
Matthew commented:
“This change is about unlocking the next stage of growth. Nobody knows the business better than Chloe – she has earned this role, and I fully believe in the strategy she has set out. Chloe has proven herself at every level and her energy, ideas, and leadership will take Get Recruited further than ever before. I’ll continue to support her and the team from a strategic perspective, but this is Chloe’s time to lead.”
