I am delighted and humbled to have been elected onto the Representative Committee of APSCo and excited to be able to bring my wealth of recruitment knowledge and vast experience of supporting and coaching recruitment leaders grow and expand their businesses across the UK, Europe, America, and Australia.
APSCo UK has recently announced my election to its Representative Committee, a decision that has been met with enthusiasm and high expectations within the professional recruitment industry.

Over the last 14 years, I have transitioned into roles that have further solidified my influence in the industry. As a Growth Coach, L&D Trainer, and Non-Executive Director, I have supported professional recruitment businesses across the UK, Europe, Australia, and the US. My extensive work with 60-80 recruitment business leaders annually speaks volumes about my dedication and impact on the industry.

This recognition highlights my expertise and the respect I command on the global stage. I am also a regular speaker at conferences, addressing the future technology impacts on the employment sector—an area of keen interest as the industry navigates through disruptive times.
My commitment to the recruitment industry is not just professional but deeply personal. Passionate about advancing and shaping the industry to meet societal and technological challenges, I am dedicated to raising the ethical standards that bind our sector. This blend of professional acumen and ethical commitment positions me as an ideal addition to APSCo’s Representative Committee.
