​About Ben
I have been in recruitment since 2016 as an IT Functional specialist, supporting candidates and clients across the UK, US, and Europe. I have a proven background in hiring for IT teams across Engineering, Manufacturing, Agricultural, Aerospace, and Defence sectors.

Away from work
I have 2 young sons who keep me more than busy outside of work!
I am a keen sportsman with a background in rugby, playing for Bridgnorth for over 20 years. As my body has got older though I am probably more of a fan who enjoys supporting them and following my football team, Manchester United, too.
