​About Jeff
I am a degree-educated Mechanical Engineer with a background in manufacturing, where I initially completed an apprenticeship. After a period working for an SME in product design, I moved on to an automotive Tier 1 company in product development, working on various projects for multiple OEMs within chassis engineering.
I first joined Jonathan Lee in 2015, primarily specialising in automotive product development and creative design and styling roles. My role has since evolved to support other engineering, manufacturing, and technology sectors. I utilise my technical expertise to gain a deep understanding of the skills, education, culture, and organisational fit required, allowing me to find and attract the very best candidates to meet client requirements.
