Karimah Shaw is a Talent and Recruitment Consultant with over seven years’ experience delivering recruitment and talent solutions for organisations navigating growth, change, and complex hiring demands. She is known for bringing structure, clarity, and delivery to recruitment environments where quality, pace, and consistency matter.
Karimah operates as a strategic talent partner rather than a transactional recruiter, taking ownership of hiring outcomes from attraction through to placement and retention.
Karimah has worked across agency, in-house, RPO, and independent consulting environments, supporting organisations through high-volume hiring, early careers programmes, and business-critical recruitment.
She is frequently engaged where hiring is under pressure or lacks structure, helping organisations design and deliver scalable recruitment processes that improve hiring quality, speed, and long-term workforce sustainability. Her cross-sector experience allows her to transfer best practice between industries while maintaining high standards of fairness and candidate experience.
Alongside recruitment delivery, she is recognised for building job-ready talent pipelines through structured screening, workforce preparation, and early careers support, ensuring candidates are equipped not just to secure roles, but to perform and sustain employment once hired.
Karimah has partnered with organisations including Uber, Hays, BGC Group, Moneybox, Zapp, and CFP Energy, supporting hiring programmes where judgement, consistency, and delivery are critical.
She is recognised for designing inclusive recruitment processes that improve candidate experience and conversion, and for delivering early careers hiring programmes that balance potential with capability. Karimah is also a speaker at the UK Recruitment Agency Expo and a trusted talent partner to employers seeking scalable, ethical hiring solutions.
