Building Industry / Civil Construction Consultant
"I personally started my career on the bottom of the ladder and worked my way up rung by rung. I have been employed across a lot of different types of business, from a Diesel mechanic in automotive, building and construction right through to managing a team of 57 staff which included recruitment.
I understand some of the frustrations involved when seeking talented and loyal staff and the consequences of getting it wrong.
This is why I believe I have a good understanding and an exceptional ability of finding the right person for any area of your business -from floor sweeper to management."
