  • Marker Consulting
    Principal Recruitment Consultant
    Marker Consulting 2003 - 2005
    Sydney
    First role in Australia hiring recruitment professionals, some of whom I am still in touch with. Rec to Rec is a hard task as you are working with people in the same business/jobs as yourself and a high level of candidate/client care is required. I made a large amount of placements, always hit my targets and always took home my commission. I used a lot of my executive search skills gained in the UK in this role.
  • Search Uk
    Managing Partner/Co-Founder
    Search Uk Jan 2000 - Nov 2003
    Birmingham, England, United Kingdom
    I took to this like a duck to water and worked exclusively on executive search, working exclusively on retained searches of C level executives throughout the UK, and occasionally, Europe. I am the co-founder, managing, at it's peak a staff of 12 senior search executives. It is still running to this day by my Business Partner who took a gamble on me and taught me everything I know whilst co-running and managing a successful business from scratch. The fact that I only took home what I earned and, eventually, what I coached our staff's approach to senior execs is a testament to my skills at sourcing and working under pressure.
  • Cradley Print
    Pre-Press Mac Operator/Technical Advisor
    Cradley Print 1997 - 2000
    West Midlands, Uk
    A promotion from Pre-press Mac Operator saw me going out to clients and advising them on how to successfully submit their files for print. Clients included the British Medical Journal, a publication that required top notch advice so as to be accurate each and every time. This high-level client interaction and account management led to me moving to recruitment.
  • Auto Trader Uk
    Mac Operator
    Auto Trader Uk 1995 - 1997
    Birmingham, England, United Kingdom
    First job. Working with a team of graphic designers creating everything from the cover to the content in a last-minute environment. Involved in creative meetings and design and later moved on to their prestigious magazine, 'Top Marques'. Before social media had it's full impact, these weekly publications were the sole source of selling cars and motor-related products. Hugely successful but a time-pressured environment, something I have carried across to time management in my corporate positions.
