Professional Background
I began my journey in technology recruitment in 2006 with a global recruitment firm. In 2014, I co-founded a startup recruitment company, and shortly after, trasnitioned into an internal role as a Recruitment Business Partner for a global software house - this was a pivotal experience that deepend my understanding of internal hiring strategies.
Since joining Chapman Tate Associates (CTA) in 2019, I've grown into the role of Director, where I lead and mentor a high-performing recruitment team.
We prioritise strategic leadership and hands-on recruitment with key partners from startups and SMEs to global enterprises.
We provide Permanent and Contract/Interim recruitment solutions, working closely with our clients to enable a smooth talent acquisition process and providing our candidate network with the right opportunities for them.
I've been passionate about technology from a young age, and my background in IT education has given me a solid understanding of how tech works and evolves. I believe there's great talent out there—and a right role for everyone. My focus is on connecting people with meaningful opportunities and partnering with companies that value a people-first approach.
What's It Like To Work With Me?
I believe strong relationships are based on trust, transparency, and mutual respect. The best results come when we combine our expertise and work as genuine partners with the shared goal of making exceptional hires.
At CTA, we take pride in being genuine consultants - not just recruiters. Our motto, "Power of People", is at the heart of everything we do. With years of experience behind us, we approach every search with integrity, dedication, and a real commitment to finding the right fit.
We love tackling niche, hard-to-fill roles—whether it's legacy tech like AS400/Cobol or emerging fields like AI and Crypto. From global Fintechs to fast-moving FMCG businesses, we know how to tap into talent networks others might miss.

A Bit More About Me
I’m married with three football-obsessed kids and a rescue dog called Ruby. Most weekends are spent as the unofficial ref's assistant at my kids' football games. When I do get downtime, I'm either gaming, testing out new gadgets, or diving into random tops - I'm a lifelong learner at heart.
