September 26, 2024

Marie Pavlou (MSc – ACyHRMA- ABNLP)’s expertise at Emerald Zebra goes beyond recruitment—it’s about building meaningful relationships that last. With her extensive background in HR and Talent Management across FinTech, Tech, Finance, and iGaming, she knows how to match candidates to companies where both will thrive.

We asked Marie a couple of questions about her approach:

❓What unique strengths or experiences do you personally bring to Emerald Zebra, and how do they enhance the recruitment experience for your clients and candidates?❓

🙋🏻‍♀️I bring a blend of industry expertise and a deep understanding of both the client and candidate perspectives and needs. My background includes extensive experience in HR and Talent Management in FinTech, Tech, Finance, and iGaming, allowing me to understand the strict requirements of companies as well as the aspirations of candidates.

I take pride in being highly detail-oriented, ensuring that I match the right candidates with the right roles, not just in terms of skills but also culture fit because culture plays a vital role on the success of the business but also on the success of the career development of the candidate. My ability to engage with clients and candidates on a personal level ensures that the recruitment process is more than just transactional, it becomes a tailored experience that meets the individual goals of everyone involved. By consistently prioritizing long-term success over short-term placement, I help ensure that both parties benefit from sustainable and productive relationships.

❓Why do you believe candidates and companies choose to work specifically with you at Emerald Zebra, and how do you build those lasting relationships❓

🙋🏻‍♀️I believe that candidates and companies choose to work with me because I emphasize relationship-building as the key element of my approach. I invest a lot of time and make a lot of effort to listen and understand the needs of both sides, treating each placement as a partnership rather than a one-off transaction.

For companies, this means I strive to truly understand their culture, values, and strategic vision, ensuring the talent I bring in will thrive within their organization.

For candidates, I act as an advocate for their career growth, helping them find opportunities that align with their long-term goals. This mutual trust is built over time through open communication, and a genuine commitment to everyone’s success.

It’s these lasting relationships, grounded in trust and a shared vision for success, that make working with me a unique and valuable experience for both companies and candidates at Emerald Zebra.
