Poppy Lane Placements Ltd

Poppy Lane Placements is a private staff placement firm founded by Elaine Braid in 2011. For 15 years, the company has connected royal families, ultra-high-net-worth households, entrepreneurs, private estates, and family offices with staff across the UK, Europe, the United States, and the Middle East. Its work is referral-led and relationship-driven, serving clients whose households and needs may span multiple properties and generations.

The firm provides private staffing placements across temporary, temporary-to-permanent, part-time, and full-time roles. Its team supports both clients and candidates, managing the placement process from initial conversations through to contracts and final appointments, including attention to non-disclosure agreements. Poppy Lane emphasizes careful, considered recruitment, prioritizing the right match over a quick placement. The company is based in Notting Hill, London, and Business Bay, Dubai, and works internationally, including with clients in Australia. Drawing on experience within private households and high-standard environments, Poppy Lane aims to understand each client’s requirements and provide staffing support suited to their individual circumstances.
