Meet Our Founders
Maria Charalambous
Throughout my career, I have dedicated myself to excelling as a Personal Assistant and later as an Executive Assistant at the highest level. These roles allowed me to form invaluable relationships with other EAs and a wide range of businesses. I’ve always been passionate about connecting with people and understanding their unique strengths, which naturally led me to my next career step: leveraging those relationships to match talented individuals with the right business opportunities for them.
One of the most rewarding experiences in my journey was working alongside Rachel. Our collaboration quickly blossomed into a strong working relationship built on a foundation of friendship, trust, and a shared commitment to excellence. Rachel and I discovered that we had a unique synergy; our aligned work ethics and mutual respect helped us bring out the best in each other.
Outside of my professional life, I am a dedicated working mum, balancing the demands of my career with the joys and responsibilities of raising my children. This dual role has taught me the importance of time management, resilience, and the ability to multitask effectively. When I’m not working, you can often find me exploring the great outdoors; simply enjoying the tranquillity of the natural world with my family. Balancing my career with my personal interests has given me a well-rounded perspective on life and work, which I bring to every project and relationship I cultivate.’

Rachel Thomas
As a friendly and positive individual, I thrive on building strong relationships and making a difference in the lives of those I work with. With over two decades of experience as an Executive Assistant, I’ve had the privilege of supporting top executives across various industries, ensuring their operations run smoothly and successfully. My genuine passion for helping others fuels my dedication to my work, and I find great joy in seeing the positive impact I can make. Throughout my career, I’ve been committed to creating a collaborative and supportive environment where everyone can achieve their best. Maria and I met while working as EAs and quickly discovered a shared work ethic, aligned values, and complementary skills. This led to a close professional relationship that blossomed into a strong personal friendship. Fourteen years later, we co-founded Edge Recruitment with a mission to help others achieve their potential and find their ideal jobs. At Edge Recruitment, our goal is to provide personalised support and guidance, ensuring that both assistants and employers find the perfect match. I am passionate about creating an atmosphere where everyone can excel and achieve their fullest potential.
My dedication to my career is matched only by my commitment to my family. I am married with three young children who keep me very busy. We enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring nature, and embracing a healthy lifestyle. I strive to be a positive example, encouraging their curiosity and growth. Balancing my career and family life, I focus on health and wellness, creating an environment where they can thrive and achieve anything they set their minds to.
