Family
Lorraine lives in Bawtry with her husband Nik, three children, and her dog, Paisley.
Her background of working within accounts, followed by an enviable career in recruitment, means that she has a deep understanding of the financial recruitment sector and is perfectly placed to both support and help to successfully drive the business forward.
She started her career as an accountant for a large manufacturing business in Northern Ireland and after moving to Yorkshire, embarked on a job search for a similar role. Upon registering with a large international recruitment group, they instantly spotted her natural talent for recruitment and offered her a role as a trainee consultant. She quickly progressed through the ranks and spent several years at a senior level, recruiting for Professional Practice across Yorkshire.
This ultimately led to her leading the training division for the North of England and working at a more strategic level in the turnaround of underperforming offices.
When her daughters arrived, Lorraine decided to take a career break, but true to form, still found plenty to keep her busy. She project managed a house build as well as the renovation of several cottages. She then followed her passion for helping vulnerable young adults, taking on a role in a Further Education College assisting them to find work placements.
In April 2019 Lorraine helped to set up Pratap Partnership
Lorraine helped to set up Pratap Partnership alongside Nik and three other founding partners, Nicola, Gillian and Elise. Since then, the business has gone from strength to strength and Lorraine is incredibly proud to have played such an important part in it.
