I am an apprenticeship-trained Engineer who, in recent years, completed an MBA is Business Administration and Operational Management. Having worked in the technical recruitment sector for over 20 years, I have run my own business and over the last decade at Jonathan Lee, have progressed from Senior Recruitment Consultant through to Managing Consultant, more recently being promoted to the Board of Directors.
The thing I love most about Jonathan Lee and the technical recruitment industry more widely. is that it has allowed me to combine my engineering background with my interpersonal skills and passion to help and support people in achieving their goals.
