About Me

Unlocking Talent in Construction and Property

​My career in recruitment launched as an Executive Researcher at a highly regarded executive search firm, serving the property and construction industry. Specialising in the mid-tier market, I consistently delivered against the firm’s most challenging mandates for global construction consultancies, specialists and client-side organisations.

Fostering success in Town Planning and Development Recruitment

Keen to build on Cobalt’s long-standing reputation of successfully supporting the real estate sector, I am delighted to be aiding the team by placing Town Planning and Development professionals across the UK. Actively recruiting across local planning authorities, planning consultancies, developers and client-side organisations, I enjoy building high-performing businesses.

A commitment to quality, integrity, and growth

I am dedicated to making a positive impact on the built environment. I take pride in connecting candidates with top-tier organisations that share our values of quality, delivery, integrity, and responsibility. I am particularly interested in promoting town planning and residential development at junior level to increase awareness of the sector and contribute to the growth of the industry.

Fast tracks and fast ideas

I’m always happy to talk about tennis, formula one and fast cars! I am also passionate about entrepreneurialism, and I’m always inspired by any tales of great leadership or new ideas that make a positive impact on our planet.
