Having completed her degree at de Montford University in Leicester, Olivia deliberately embarked on a career in recruitment, cutting her teeth as a consultant for a construction and property agency. The experience gave her an insight into the complex workings of the recruitment business and enabled her to prove herself at the sharp end of the industry.
Tenacious, driven, and honourable by nature, these qualities propelled her career to executive level before taking over the running of Positive Healthcare in 2018. The hitherto faltering agency has now evolved into a multi-million-pound brand with over 35 staff representing hundreds of candidates in the medical, health, social care, and mental health sectors.
Her personal attributes instilled integrity and honesty into the business and set the standards by which to continue Positives’ accelerated growth plans. Having successfully established Positive Healthcare as one of the leading agencies in the medical sector, Olivia formed Mindmatch Recruitment in 2025 which has quickly become a prominent player in the mental health recruitment arena.
Olivia embraced the opportunity to join the PCA as she is committed to transforming the umbrella landscape to ensure it provides a transparent and reputable outsourced payroll function to the assignment-based supply chain.

This hands-on experience forms the basis of Dan's conviction when it comes to supporting the mission of the PCA, particularly at a time when these hitherto informal relationships are now established in law. Dan is committed to helping steer the PCA for the collective benefit of all stakeholders, and shares the organisations vision of building a robust, compliant payroll industry for the common good of the supply chain.
