Associate Director
07825 081 393
My specialism:
Building Surveying, Quantity Surveying and Project Management, covering the South West and South Wales regions. This ranges from Graduate to Director level.
My approach to recruitment:
Understanding the cultures of different organisations meaning I can place the right candidate, so they are more likely to fit in and be happy. I do not send out speculative CVs to clients – targeted approaches only
What keeps me motivated:
Building long-term relationships with clients and candidates. Most of my placements are from repeat business. I have placed several candidates three and four times during their career which is a great testament to the service I have provided. I also have great satisfaction knowing I am shaping the local property market.
What I do differently:
I have developed a very good understanding of the local market during my 10-years’ recruitment experience. I have a measured approach to recruitment and always honest. I am not ‘salesy’ or pushy with people.
What keeps me busy at the weekend:
I generally keep active by going to the gym, park runs and nice scenery walks if the weather is good. I also take part in the Bristol and Bath half marathons. My best time so far is 1 hour 32 minutes although my time is going up with age! I am also a passionate ‘Gas Head’ and attend the Memorial Stadium to watch Bristol Rovers.
My favourite food:
My most favourite meal is a Sunday roast with all the trimmings – you can’t beat it.
My favourite eatery:
I prefer hearty food rather than fine dining. The restaurant I visit most frequently is The Clifton Sausage. The food has always been fantastic plus they sell my favourite cider (Ashton Press) which is a bonus. I also enjoy going to Pasture which (in my opinion) is the best steak in Bristol!
My favourite book/film:
Film - Shawshank Redemption, I have watched it about 10 times and I never get bored if it.
My favourite drink:
Espresso Martini - I have now become a bit of an expert of making them at home.
My favourite travel destination:
Anywhere hot! My most travelled destinations have been Ibiza and Dubai.
Not many people know this about me:
I used to DJ in Bristol – best known venues are Bar Revolution and Java.
