Jo Benelisha, Senior Consultant
I graduated in Law from Manchester Metropolitan University. After completing Law School in London I became a legal recruiter, spending the next ten years developing a strong portfolio of legal clients throughout London and the South East. I joined Oakleaf in January 2008 as a Senior Consultant with responsibility for sourcing top HR talent for Legal, Management Consultancies, Accountancy and Property firms for our Professional Services division.
I enjoy extreme sports and have recently been Paragliding across the Mountains of Oludeniz in Turkey, completed a drift dive in Cuba and a night dive in Malta. I am currently training towards reaching my next belt in Kickboxing.
