Recruitment is not new to John, having had years hiring teams to support his management roles. John understands, first hand, the importance of the correct placement of people.

He recognises the all-consuming amount of time employers invest in recruiting with the all too often disappointing results. John’s mission is solving the problem that has become your deterrent from hiring. His vast network of contacts from years in the industry positions him well to resource from multiple sources. His ability to genuinely listen to people and hear just what it is that they need places him well to deliver efficient and effective results.
