I’ve built and run a successful recruitment consultancy for the past 17 years’ which makes me feel really old but also makes me really experienced. I’ve seen the world of talent acquisition evolve massively in recent years and it’s this change that gets me so excited about Blue Zebra and the model we’ve adopted. I passionately believe we make a massive difference to our clients inside and out.
Favourite Animal: A Zebra of course!
Favourite Music: I love any music that puts a smile on my face and a spring in my step!
Favourite Food: I love all food, in fact it’s all I ever eat.
Guilty for… Torturing my three kids with a constant stream of Dad jokes (see favourite food gag above)!

My recruitment experience dates back to the days of trying to fax 10 CV’s during the power cuts (ok I exaggerate slightly!). Having run my own Recruitment company since 2003 I’ve seen the market change hugely in that time. The importance of talent management has become crucial to commercial growth as a core function within the business. I’m so excited about the opportunities Blue Zebra provides our clients, and the way we build genuine partnerships with them to ensure their talent agenda remains critical to the business culture and its growth.
Favourite Animal: Dog, but don’t tell Andy!
Favourite Music: Anything with a beat which will allow for the full catalogue of enviable moves!
Favourite Food: Anything with wine!
Guilty for… An increasing obsession for hats in every colour of the rainbow!
