About

Caroline Salt

"It's the moments that matter, that make a real difference."

Hi, it's Caroline, founder of Caroline Salt Recruitment Ltd and I've spent over 25 years helping people and businesses find the right fit, not just on paper, but in real life. That means understanding what makes someone thrive in a role, not just whether they tick the boxes. It's about personalities, values, team dynamics, and long-term potential. I care deeply about the human side of recruitment because when it's done right, it changes lives.

I'm dedicated to providing a personal, people-focused recruitment service rooted in honesty, care, and integrity.

When you get in touch, you'll hear, "Hi, it's Caroline!" because I want you to feel welcomed from our very first conversation. I'm a genuine person who cares deeply about helping others and I'm passionate about building meaningful, long-lasting relationships with both clients and candidates.

Recruitment, for me, isn't just about filling vacancies. It's about matching the right people with the right opportunities, helping businesses grow, and supporting candidates to find roles that make them feel fulfilled. I focus on long-term success not quick wins and I bring warmth, humour, and clarity to every interaction.

Honesty

Showing respect for others and doing what's right. Building the trust and confidence that form the foundation of lasting relationships.

Care

Putting people first, showing empathy, respect and genuine attention. Creating meaningful connections and ensuring every interaction leaves a positive impact.

Integrity

Staying true to your principles, doing the right thing even when no one is watching. Building credibility through authenticity and accountability.

Community & Giving Back

Volunteering

Community has always been at the heart of what I do, both personally and professionally. Each week, I volunteer with Reaching CIC, who are dedicated to combating social isolation, promoting connectedness and improving the well-being of vulnerable adults, particularly those experiencing loneliness or hardship in Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire.

What began as a way to give back, quickly became one of the most meaningful parts of my week. Volunteering reminds me daily of the power of connection, kindness and purpose, values that shape not only my work, but the way I live.

Finding Purpose Through Volunteering with Reaching CIC

In October 2024, I joined Reaching CIC as a volunteer and it's been one of the most rewarding decisions I've ever made.

Their mission is simple, powerful and necessary: To combat social isolation, promote connectedness and improve the well-being of vulnerable adults, particularly those experiencing loneliness or hardship, within community safe spaces, in Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire.

Every Wednesday, I get to help bring that mission to life. It's the happiest two hours of my week, and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

Our participants range from thirty-something to seventy-something. We talk, laugh and, of course, enjoy a good brew. Some come to connect, to share stories, worries or memories. We listen, offer advice and signpost where we can.

Some weeks we mix things up, from seated yoga and mindfulness to crafts and board games (Jenga still reigns supreme!). Exploring Biddulph's rich history with our older participants has been fascinating, and every week I leave feeling lighter than when I arrived.

Volunteering with Reaching CIC quickly became more than just something I did, it became part of who I am. When I launched Caroline Salt Recruitment, one of my priorities was ensuring I could continue giving my time each week.

One Year of Volunteering and a New Chapter with Reaching CIC

Exactly a year ago, I sat down with Reaching CIC for my volunteer interview and what a journey it's been since!

Over the past year, I've had the privilege of supporting their work in the community and was honoured to receive a Certificate of Recognition at the Support Staffordshire Volunteer Awards during Volunteers' Week.

On 13th October, I was officially appointed to the Board as a Volunteer Director.

At Reaching, we're driven by a powerful mission: To empower adults to forge meaningful friendships, access safe and supportive spaces, and connect with trusted professionals, all while building vibrant, inclusive communities.

Each week, I volunteer at Biddulph’s Brew Club, part of our Brew Crew, a space where connection is everything. Our motto says it best: "Because it's OK to need company."

I'm proud to be part of an organisation that uplifts others and grateful for the opportunity to contribute in a more strategic way. Volunteering with Reaching CIC continues to be a source of joy, purpose and inspiration and I can't wait to see what's next.
