(15th April 2009) Recruitment expert, Jonny Breeze, has been added to the elite list of Who’s Who of Britain’s Youngest Directors 2009. Breeze, 28, founded Yellow Cat Recruitment in 2006 and over the past three years it has grown into one of the capital’s leading media and entertainment recruitment agencies. Amongst its long list of clients are 20th Century Fox, Virgin Media, Monsoon Accessorize, Cake Media, MRM Worldwide and Disney.
Jonny says: “I always wanted to run my own company from a very young age and so studied Management and Mathematics at Sheffield University. I worked in recruitment for a while and then started Yellow Cat when I realised that I could deliver a more efficient and tailored service to my clients. I built up some great contacts and saw an exciting opportunity to start my own company as I felt confident guiding myself and Yellow Cat to a successful future. I’m thrilled to be added to the elite list of Who’s Who of Youngest Directors 2009. It will be a great networking opportunity and is an honour to be recognised for all my hard work over the past four years.”
Yellow Cat Recruitment is based in central London and specialises in recruiting permanent and temporary staff for the capital’s top media and entertainment companies. Jonny and his staff have a wealth of industry knowledge within the media and creative sectors and help place candidates in roles within marketing, advertising ,PR, film, television, fashion retail, and office support. Jonny says: “Since I began Yellow Cat in 2006 the business has really gone from strength to strength. I love the rush of finding clients their perfect employee and, equally, candidates their perfect job – the rewarding buzz you get from it never wears off.”
Tracy Thomas, publisher for Who’s Who Publications, says: “There are 245,000 Directors in the UK under 30 and fewer than 30,605 of those work in companies where the net worth is over £5,000.
“There has been a huge growth in the number of people under the age of 30 setting up a business since the success of hit programmes such as Dragons’ Den and Jonny has fought off tough competition to join the list of Britain’s Youngest Directors.
“It’s so important that we honour the UK’s business leaders and their success stories at a time when the economic climate is as tough as it is. Creating this list of Britain’s Youngest Directors allows us to highlight the successes of people like Jonny, and congratulate and recognise those young people who are the future of business in the UK.”
