Tell Us About Your Background
I started my recruitment career with REED Accountancy Recruitment in the 1980's and worked for a number of Accountancy recruiters in London before setting up several recruitment companies in the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland and Thailand. In 2012 I purchased TMS Asia Pacific and renamed it TMS Talent. I am also Chairman of Recruitment Training (UK) and Future Recruiters (UK).
Why Recruitment?
In the 1980's Recruitment was a sales career and I was in a dead end job as an Insurance Broker. Recruitment equalled freedom.
What Is Your Favourite Destination & Why?
Great Barrier Island, New Zealand - off the grid, paradise.

Tell Us About Your Background
I started in the European IT Recruitment world back in 2010 after finishing up on what was an action packed few years which included, the completing of my schooling and 1 year at University, playing Rugby for England & Harlequins, competing at the World Schools Athletics, and also playing my trombone in various bands/orchestras around the world! These experiences, challenges and triumphs taught my many valuable lessons that I was then able to apply into the world of recruitment, and are still present with me on a daily basis 10+ years on.
Why Recruitment?
Like many, honestly, I simply "fell" into recruitment with little knowledge or expectation, however I now truly understand its value, place and opportunity on a much wider perspective and is something that I am truly passionate about.
What Is Your Favourite Destination & Why?
My favourite travel destination is Florida as it is where I met my wife, have visited many times and where I have both fond memories and family. Besides the benefits of having family in Florida, it is also an amazing tourist destination with so much to offer which keeps you wanting to come back for more time and time again!

I am a massive fan of Musicals and if I ever have headphones on the chances are it will be either songs from Musicals or Disney songs!

Tell Us About Your Background
I have over 5 years of Recruitment experience across Europe mainly in the Nordics, specifically Norway & Sweden. During this time the emphasis in industry I have worked within has been technology. I have had experience from the ground up, building relationships with people whether they were a consumer or a client thing have always seemed quite natural, whether they are start-ups or 1000+ staffed corporations.
Why Recruitment?
Following University, like most I didn’t know where to go, I fell into Recruitment for its earning potential, which do not get me wrong is a great benefit. However, Recruitment itself is not what wakes me up in the morning, over the years surveying and receiving feedback on my approach and the relationships I have built, I have found I have genuinely had an impact on people’s lives, compared to my competition, my ethics and integrity. It is a mixture of obviously earning potential, subject domain (Technology) as well as knowing I and my approach has left a genuine positively refreshing resonation with everyone I work with. That is why Recruitment.
What Is Your Favourite Destination & Why?
I can’t get enough of North Wales. I have visited 7+ times the past few years and every time is a new adventure. All that headspace and all that outdoor exploration is healthy for the mind and soul. Not only that, it is a grounding experience.
Tell Us Something We Don't Know About You
Well, it may be obvious now but, I am a massive nature geek with a huge affinity for the outdoors and all it beholds. I would take a week in a tent in the rain over a hotel in Dubai any day of the week.
However, other than that in my spare time some of my favourite past times is things like gardening & either reading or watching anime/manga from before 2010 era.

Tell Us about Your Background
I have had many interesting careers in my life. The Royal Opera House, London in their accounts department, a Japanese Bank, ran my own Pub and Restaurant, a Finance department of a school - to fit in with my children at the time. I joined TMS Talent in 2016 and have enjoyed watching and sharing in the growth of this exciting company.
Why Recruitment?
Travel has always been a huge passion in my life and working within the travel recruitment business feeds that passion. It is also hugely exciting and rewarding seeing our sales consultants constantly hit and exceed their targets.
What Is Your Favourite Destination & Why?
I absolutely love city breaks, far away destinations, quaint English hotels and villages, adventure holidays, anywhere where I can Scuba dive. But my favourite so far is Machu Picchu, I had the absolute privilege of walking the Inca Trail in 2018.
Tell Us Something We Don’t Know About You
I am a qualified Scuba Diver with BSAC, and can dive to 35m, although I much prefer the marine life that is found around the 20m mark. I am currently studying to become a dive Leader.
