Simon Davis possesses expertise in recruiting, search, executive search, talent acquisition, change management and 10 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I first worked with Simon even before he set up Search Direct. Over the last nearly 20 years he has handled well over 200 assignments for Ramsey Hall and me. As I write this in November 2010 he is currently running the research on six different recruitment assignments all at director or chief executive level. Never once in all that time have I doubted, even for a second, Simon's expertise, his diligence or his ethics. If there is a better researcher anywhere in the UK I have yet to meet him."
