He began working in Scotland in 2004, where he was instrumental in establishing and developing the Page Personnel brand across the country.
All of this insight and experience will assist him in his role at Search where he will lead a team of 20 recruitment professionals operating within the Accountancy & Finance, HR, Legal, Marketing and Financial Services sectors, with significant growth planned for 2017 across all our Scottish offices.
