Margaret Brittin
Consultant

Margaret Brittin runs the Midlands office of Sue Hill Recruitment, together with Chris Crabtree. The office opened in 2000 after market research showed a potential need for a recruitment service based in the area, with specialised knowledge of the Midlands market. Since then she and Chris have been actively marketing the service in the Midlands by recruiting high calibre candidates and by undertaking a programme of visits to clients. We are now placing candidates in a wide range of jobs in libraries in the area – in further and higher education, workplace libraries, charities and the NHS, to name a few.

Margaret is also a partner with Chris Crabtree in Information Unlimited, an information consultancy set up in 1989. They have undertaken a variety of consultancy work in the library and information world, including information audits, customer satisfaction surveys, database compilation and training. Margaret and Chris are also responsible for setting up SLIM (Special Librarians in the Midlands), an informal networking group.

Before setting up Information Unlimited, Margaret was manager of the University of Warwick Business Information Service. She has extensive experience of business information, having also worked for Manchester Business School and British Gas.

Outside work, her interests include walking and watching cricket.
