22 years of recruitment experience, 13 of which are in the technology sector. In 2020, I launched BrightSpark Recruitment, a specialist IT, Data and Digital Recruitment company. Originally from the UK, I finally grew tired of the weather and moved to New Zealand in 2009. Over the last 22 years, I have had the pleasure of working with hundreds of businesses in various industries, including some of the most recognisable organisations in New Zealand and globally. I pride myself on being an industry expert, a true partner to my clients, and a trusted go-to consultant for job seekers in the IT, Data and Digital sector. I am not just known for getting results, but also for my passion for giving back to the industry. You will often find me running a graduate employment readiness workshop, attending a job fair, holding workshops for new migrants, or attending meetups and other industry events. I also sit on the IT advisory board of a well-known tertiary education provider. I was extremely honoured to be recognised for my work when I became the proud winner of the NZ Seek SARA Recruitment Consultant of the Year award in 2019 and the RCSA Industry Leader of the Year award 2023.
