Why me?
Hi! I'm Lucyna Bolin.
I’ve experienced recruitment in every shape and form - from leading L&D, training and coaching across five continents for global firms like SThree and PageGroup, to partnering with boutique start-ups and fast-growing agencies. This gives me a practical, inside-out understanding of what actually works in high-pressure recruitment environments, both front and back office.
Over the years, I’ve seen the same challenges come up for every founder, regardless of market or team size. The question I hear most often is: “Lucy, how can I improve my craft, lead my team and still keep billing?” That’s the sweet spot I help you master: balancing leadership, delivery and personal growth in this fast-paced, high-stakes industry.
When you work with me, you get what your business needs most:
the clarity of an executive coach, the strategy of an L&D consultant and the practicality of a hands-on trainer. Whether you’re just starting out or growing a team, my approach adapts to where you are now and where you want to go next, fully tailored to your business model, budget, market and stakeholders.
And because I believe that training only works when it’s targeted, everything I build is role-specific. Why? Every role in recruitment has unique challenges and needs the right focus at the right time. Whether you need founder coaching, onboarding that ramps rookies faster, end-to-end recruitment cycle training, upskilling for experienced consultants, leadership development for billing managers or stakeholder management for regional heads - it’s all designed around your people, your goals and your challenges.
The result? Your business can scale, your team can unlock their potential and your candidates and clients can enjoy seamless customer experience, not just service, with streamlined and unified processes.
Let’s talk about where you are now and where you want to take your business next

What can I say about Lucy? A lot! I'm in many ways the recruiter I am today thanks to Lucy. She helped me on much more than just sales. I learned to develop empathy, stress & time management and so much more. She was dedicated, no 9 to 5 mentality. Thanks to her I was able to change lives in a positive way. All the people who recommended me have indirectly recommended her too!

Lucy was quick to understand the training needs for my team and what we could do to upskill them in a fun and interesting way. She has a high level of empathy and a true passion for the development of individuals - always trying to find that what sparks someone, by asking the right questions and getting to the point quickly. I would highly recommend Lucy, she is a great person to work with!
Martine de Jong
Director PageGroup
I had the pleasure to work with Lucy during her time at SThree where she was responsible for coaching my employees and myself in sales. I have always received very good feedback on her training. The courses I attended myself, I always went out with new ideas or insights I could use for my daily business. In her coaching she is open minded, conclusive and is able to adapt to different skillsets.

Your Partner
I stumbled into recruitment by chance and immediately fell in love with it. Funny enough - that’s the narrative many of my clients share too. They were engineers, real estate agents, lawyers, athletes and made it work, because recruitment is so multi-faceted that it rewards transferrable skills. When I pivoted into recruitment sales, I found myself blending it all - combining the psychology of performance, the art of coaching and the commercial drive of recruitment. That’s why I love this industry: there’s no one path, no perfect background, no single blueprint, but there is a way to sharpen your craft, elevate your team and build a culture where everyone thrives. And that’s where I’m happy to come in. Before I devise solutions, I conduct a detailed Needs Analysis to understand your business needs now but more importantly your aspirations and plans, so that my proposed L&D strategy and training roadmap are future proof.
Recruitment and running
You're not someone who leaves growth to chance. You want training that moves the needle, coaching that shifts mindset, not just method.
I'm a marathoner and mindset is everything in running. The same goes for your business. You need a partner who speaks your language and understands your world.
If you're ready to build to build the business you actually envisioned, let's talk. Book your call today so that together we can create your very own development playbook, a framework to scale on purpose, not by chance.
