Family
Elise lives in Ossett with her husband and 2 young sons, George and Oliver.
Elise has been working in recruitment for 15 years and is one of only a small number of consultants who specialise in professional practice recruitment in Yorkshire. Regarded as an expert in her field, her network has naturally evolved throughout her career due to the fact she has followed many candidates through from being newly qualified, to being directors and partners within the region’s leading firms.
Elise started her career in an international accountancy firm on a graduate training scheme, where she worked for three years before deciding that Tax was not the career for her.
She decided to explore other avenues and a friend suggested she should consider recruitment. She took the leap and managed to combine her background and experience of professional practice with recruitment and has never looked back.
Elise spent 10 Years working for Hays Senior Finance, ultimately as Head of Professional Practice for the Yorkshire Region and it was there that she met Nik and Gillian. From there, she moved on to a privately invested business, again, heading up recruitment for Practice. As an expert in her field, Elise has a deep understanding and passion for the professional practice market and has built up some fantastic relationships with her clients over the years, who have grown to trust and value her knowledge and opinion of the local market.
Elise’s areas of specialism include senior management and executive level search across a range of sectors and disciplines.
Elise also has a lot of experience of working with many of the region’s leading professional practice firms
I pride myself on honesty and integrity, alongside the knowledge I have of my sector which has allowed me to establish the large network I have today. Having worked with Nik, Nicola and Gillian for many years setting up Pratap Partnership was the proudest moment of my career and I am delighted with what we have already achieved as a business

After finding the perfect plot of land in the perfect location, and due to being married to an architect, Elise decided to build her own house and manage the project herself. Despite it all being rather stressful at the time, she claims it was definitely the right decision, resulting in her now owning her dream home.
Elise was proud to complete the Great North Run for Breast Cancer Care alongside fellow Partner, Gillian McBride and still runs regularly to keep fit.
Elise has been working in recruitment for 18years specialising in the professional practice in the early part of her career alongside a focus more recently on the executive search market across a range of sectors.
