OUR STORY
During her years in the City,
Julia struggled to see how
she could “flex” her corporate
career – it seemed like she was
compromising too much
on all fronts.
She knew that she wasn’t
unique in this.
Then she joined a start-up, and it all fell into place: she
could achieve flexibility without compromising
ambition, challenging work or opportunity. It was an
equally great fit for the business – remaining lean
without compromising on quality. Julia started to see
the obvious mutual benefits of this partnership. The
many businesses she surveyed (from start-ups to
more established companies) agreed. So,
motivated by a strong desire to empower
businesses and talented professionals, she founded
Hurston Eliot.
Since 2014 we have built an
extensive network of clients and
candidates who are committed to
doing things differently.
Kate joined in 2018, also motivated by a desire to continue to do interesting, challenging work, whilst still having time for the other important areas in her life.
Working in partnership, we’re able to support our clients to find the best candidates – and to support our candidates to find fulfilling roles.
At Hurston Eliot, we’re offering the best, on terms that suit everyone. If this sounds appealing, we’d love to hear from you.

CASE STUDIES
Jolyn
After 15 years in equity sales at Goldman Sachs, Jolyn was focused on finding a role with a smaller organisation that would give her breadth, longevity and flexibility. Through us, she secured her first portfolio role, forming the cornerstone of her new portfolio FD career.
Sophie
Sophie was working full-time as a lawyer when we approached her about a 3 day p/w role with a VC backed scale-up. She had been grappling with her desire to be more present at home for her two primary school aged children and her continued appetite for career progression. This step-up role gave her the opportunity to reduce her working hours, but increase her scope and professional development.

I was introduced to Kate and Julia by a friend who had found a fabulous new role with their help. They both took a lot of time to get to know me and were genuinely interested in what I was looking for and why – in stark contrast with conventional headhunters. They truly understand the value part-time roles can offer companies and are breaking new ground. The range of opportunities they have are so varied that I was able to wait until one came along that ticked all my boxes. The whole process has been super smooth. I have felt 100% confident as they have represented me with my new employer, in a role I would never have uncovered without their help.
CATHERINE, REAL ESTATE
“I was thoroughly impressed working with the team at Hurston Eliot. They had really taken the time to understand their client and the sort of person they were after. They were professional, encouraging and considerate. I valued their guidance and insight and would highly recommend Hurston Eliot to others in my position seeking an interesting and challenging role.”
