Jayme Mace
I specialise in recruiting within the projects and property development space. My ability to identify and attract high-caliber candidates has been a key factor in the sustained success and development of the teams that I have supported.
My Path:
After graduating from High School in Johannesburg, I attended University in Cape Town, where I completed a BA in Communications, with a specialisation in Art Direction and Design. As I was nearing the end of my uni days, I knew that I wanted to travel and live abroad which led me to work in Hong Kong where I was introduced to the world of recruitment. I began my career recruiting design and interior architecture roles.
My Passions:
Yoga and long-walks on the beach (genuinely) but since having three little boys, my yoga sessions have shortened, as have my walks. Now it’s more along the lines of playing on the beach with my kids and walking my Cavoodle, Bruce. Side love for my veggie garden and all things cooking.
My value:
Having been focused on the design, projects and development space for the past 12 years’ I feel that I have a strong view on the market, although I am always learning more. I have worked across APAC and Australia. Working internally for a client gave me a good understanding of what it looks like “on the other side” with an appreciation of just how valuable of what a good hire means for a firm.
