ABOUT

Hi, I’m Celia Wyndham.

After 18 years of recruitment experience working in London both within agencies and with in-house talent teams, in 2024 I established my own independent consultancy, Sunbird People, directed at consolidating this recruitment experience.

Whilst PR and Communications are at the centre of my professional practice, I have also had extensive exposure to a range of disciplines gained whilst working in-house within major FTSE100 companies. My client portfolio has embraced high-growth start-ups, SMEs as well as working with globally established brands.

Why work with Sunbird People?

Experience, insight & understanding

As well as sourcing the best candidates and roles across the PR and communications industry I also provide industry insights into salary benchmarking, industry trends, benefits, the recruitment process, CV writing and interview techniques and tips.

PEOPLE

I don’t work with anyone and everyone. I know my network. I have strong professional and personal relationships with them. I know their drivers, I know their comfort zones, I know their boundaries and I know their potential.

FLEXIBLE SERVICE

Benefiting from both agency and in-house across all levels I can be flexible on how we work, be it a unique position or building teams.

CULTURAL UNDERSTANDING

Truly understanding the nuances of organisations is what makes me tick, ensuring I always deliver people with the right cultural fit.

LATERAL THINKER

I’m known for my successful (and slightly left field) creative solutions that work.

HUMAN

With the ever-evolving landscape of AI systems at your fingertips it’s easy to wonder whether the role of a recruiter is actually necessary. They are devoid of everything I am. I have a unique moral compass that guides actions. This crucial absence can lead to decisions that, while logically sound, will almost certainly lack fairness, empathy or compassion in the hiring process.
