“Turning tenacity into meaningful outcomes”

I was a close colleague of Andy for several years. Throughout that time I was consistently impressed by his commercial acumen. He has strong analytical abilities and is both a natural problem solver and a creative thinker. He was prepared to take on personal responsibility for significant projects across a number of areas of the business and always showed great tenacity in delivering outcomes that had a meaningful influence on the performance of SThree

“He sees the external factors and helped generate millions in alternative revenue”

Having worked with Andy for over 20 years, I’ve seen the integral role he played in the success of SThree. Starting his career in sales, he climbed successively into management, Operations Director, and then onto becoming Commercial Director. He had a significant impact on generating millions of alternative revenue for the group. In overseeing the rollout of processes and systems, he not only saved the company money but made our services and delivery fit for purpose. Andy sees the external factors that impact recruitment, and as part of the innovation team, we trusted him with reviewing and assessing the impact of numerous businesses and technologies on our core offering.

“Two months ahead of planned”

To say Andy has been integral to our business is an understatement. Andy has helped us to solidify our strategy and proposition allowing us to work back the specific milestones and objectives needed in order to achieve our goals. By assisting in structuring our business and holding us accountable to agreed markers we are already 2 months ahead of schedule.

The story so far…

My journey began in 1999 as a trainee at Huxley Associates. When I left SThree in 2020 I was the Investment Director responsible for building the next generation of staffing products. I’ve been both in the trenches and on the parapet. For almost a decade I oversaw the brand’s global commercial operations and built the framework for repeatedly scaling new verticals, teams, ventures, and expansion internationally. SThree was – and still is – a great example of how businesses can innovate from the front. My role was to define, map, and strategically move towards expansion by seizing opportunity and mitigating risk. I started Recspand to take those learnings and package them for recruitment businesses to go on the same journey. Every business I work with wants to be known for something. Everyone has a why. Mine is to give leaders the framework to make their journey easier. We won’t make the decisions for you, but we will give you the confidence to build repeatable, scalable, future-proofed value that get you to your vision.
