Operating nationally, my main focus is to manage the Russell Taylor key accounts and develop new business opportunities within the Process and Industrial trades & engineering sectors. Following 10+ year experience gained as a recruitment consultant and manager I understand my client’s requirements and frustrations whilst knowing the market limitations. This knowledge and experience allows me to have a fully transparent and honest approach to my business development. I am a firm believer in delivering on what you promise. In a competitive market where others promise the earth and deliver very little I believe my honest and focused approach to be key to building long lasting and trusting relationships with my clients.

From my return from Houston with Air energi I re-joined my team back with Russell Taylor, In my time away most accounts had been taken over by colleagues. This meant that I had a blank canvass to use what I had learnt in Houston to rebuild my desk, but to rebuild bigger and strong than before. I soon established a number of very key accounts that used contract labour around the world in very large numbers, this resulted in the expansion of our team to include a key account administrator to help me manage the large numbers of contractors working for me globally. Through this time of re-establishing myself in the UK market I was offered the opportunity by my MD Ben Russell to head up the management of the Site Projects Team, the team that I had helped to build with my predecessor. This was an opportunity that I could not pass up on! Although small at this time (consisting of 4 consultants) it was the chance to take the team & my career to the next level, enabling the team and myself to grow with Russell Taylor. As Site Projects Divisional manager and Key accounts consultant it has been essential for me to ensure my team and myself are focussed on the task in hand daily, this has been achieved by introducing structures and targets to our days as appose to somewhat micro management style that we had experienced previously. The demand can change hour by hour so we must always remain reactive to our client’s requirements, this does means that our plans must adapt quickly to make sure we are maximising every opportunity and servicing our clients to the best standard possible. In a competitive market like ours a quick reaction to requirements is essential and this is achieved by a focused and a hardworking team all pulling the right direction. I am very proud to say that Site projects team is a good example of a team that works as a team and succeeds together as a team, our wins are shared and are not possible without team work and focus.

In early 2011 I was offered the opportunity to travel to Houston Texas and work for one world leaders in Oil & Gas recruitment (AirEnergi). This was an opportunity to work away from home in one of the strongest Oil and Gas markets at that present time whilst expanding my recruitment skills. My recruitment history prior to Houston was mainly that of a fast paced blue collar temporary recruitment, Houston educated me to the Permanent / Long term contract White collar recruitment style that is the norm in that market. Learning the importance of candidate management has since enabled me to intergrade these skill into all other recruitment styles. Although a short term position a fantastic learning & life experience.

From reaching the position of General Manager within the restaurant industry I soon realised that the standard of life would never improve if I was to stay. I saw the position advertised by Russell Taylor for a trainee recruitment consultant advertised on a job board and decided I had to give it a go for a chance to change my career before it was too late. A number of my friends worked in recruitment at that time so I was able to gain a good understanding of the process before successfully being offered the position. From the first day of starting in recruitment and learning everything from sales techniques, recruiting and candidate management I enjoyed it. I devoted a great amount of personal time to learn the M&E engineering trades and types of projects that I was recruiting for, this resulted in a highly successful start. I was able to win a number of medium sized accounts very quickly and soon established myself as a consultant with a steady revenue. I continued to work hard and ably myself to learn everything I could about the market, continuously conducted my candidate’s calls and reference checks and followed up every lead generated. I am very proud that in this short time I grew a very established desk of regular clients & candidates and after 9 months of competitive billings I was promoted to Senior Consultant.
