Adrian Thomson is a Interim Recruitment Manager at Slough Borough Council. They possess expertise in performance management, coaching, training, business development, management and 44 more skills. Colleagues describe them as "As my line manager, I found Adrian to be a great listener with a cool and calm head under pressure. He understands how to manage a team effectively, without micro-managing - a rare skill to find within management. Adrian built a dynamic and multi-skilled team whilst at Oxfordshire County Council, which is now one of the best teams I have worked in. He empowered the team, kept us all informed and engaged and fostered a trusting and professional environment. He also didn’t under-estimate the importance of the little things, like saying thank you after a tough week or calling for a quick well-being check in, without waiting for one to one meetings. I saw Adrian make clear and concise decisions for the team whilst including us in the decision making process. He was adept at knowing what to prioritise whilst delivering creative and out-of-the box solutions. I would absolutely recommend Adrian in any managerial capacity as well as recruitment operations and transformation projects from my time working with him. He will bring fresh ideas and foster great working relationships. We will miss you! " and "I have worked with Adrian on two occasions. Adrian expertly filled both roles - Most recently, the Resourcing HR manager role for Oxfordshire County Councils Resourcing team. Adrian is a great manager and an outstanding mentor with a wealth of experience and knowledge. He is innovative, transparent as well as supportive and is always encouraging creative ideas and suggestions. I was impressed by Adrian's ability to handle any situation calmly and patiently. This natural skill of his has helped the whole Resourcing team adapt, collaborate and act with resilience to all situations. Adrian has made me improve in many professional areas and I believe his overall presence positively impacted both companies and my individual experience working there. I witnessed Adrian‘s commitment to his roles first-hand, and I recommend him without hesitation."
