Our team
I started my recruitment career in 2010, since then I have worked across most aspects of the UK Infrastructure & Construction sectors and International Maritime, giving me a wealth of experience in technical recruitment, both in the UK and overseas.
I have a genuine passion and enthusiasm to make the recruitment process better and strive for quality, I have expertise in Contract, Permanent, retained search and exclusive projects. Outside of work I’m a proud father to a beautiful girl and boy, and devoted husband. When I have enough energy in between running around after 2 kids and a dog, I love to play squash, cricket, and the odd bike ride. I’m also learning to play golf, unsuccessfully!

Having Graduated with a Sports Science Degree from Southampton University in 2008, I started my career in Recruitment in the Summer of 2011 as a Consultant within the Water Industry. I have remained in this sector for my entire tenure, and it is probably acceptable to self-proclaim that I am highly knowledgeable about all things AMP related! Within the workspace, I am passionate about creating a High Performing Culture in tandem with servicing our Clients and Candidates to the best of our abilities.
In my personal time, I am very keen on Sports and attempt to get to the gym 3 or 4 time. If it’s a WFH day, then you can usually find me doing a Joe Wicks HIIT in my lunch hour! I am a big fan of all things related to Boxing and am also a long-suffering supporter of Southampton FC having held a Season ticket for the last 7 years.

I head up the Water Division where we support our clients with multi-disciplinary permanent & contract recruitment through 360 project lifecycles. We can provide White Collar, Blue Collar and Permanent services dependent on our customer’s needs.

My core background has been in the fashion industry within retail management and visual merchandising. This has given great commercial awareness and organisational skills which I have transferred into my role at Fyba to help manage and grow the brand and business.

Outside of my role at Fyba I enjoy restoring and revitalising old furniture to give it a new lease of life.

I have been working in recruitment since 2019 and have covered various sectors within infrastructure including highways, water, and telecoms. This has provided me with a strong understanding of technical recruitment across a variety of different areas, mostly recruiting for permanent focused markets.
I believe working at Fyba in such exciting and booming markets like Water, Renewables & Telecoms is proving to be a great career move for me, with lots of long-term opportunities.
Whilst not at work I like to fill my free time by playing golf, watching football including my own team Liverpool which has been a more pleasurable experience in recent years, and keeping fit by running.
Focus at Fyba:
I primarily focus on delivery for several of our major accounts with higher volume recruitment requirements. Sector focus; Telecoms, Renewable Energy, Water & Utilities.

I started my recruitment career back in January 2019, where I joined a fast passed blue collar desk within the Water industry. Over the next 3.5 years I gained valuable experience dealing with both candidates and clients in a challenging market.
Joining the recruitment world at 19 years old I never knew what I was stepping into, now almost 5 years on I can safely say it was the best decision I could have made. I have a strong passion to go above and beyond for not only our clients but our candidates as well.
Outside of work I’m a keen footballer and I like to spend most weekends either playing or watching the football (Normally with a beer in hand). I enjoy spending time with friends and family and can be very easily persuaded into a Nando’s or two…

I spent 6 years working as a sports therapist until June 2023 for Havant and Waterlooville FC alongside other various roles at the NHS, and Havant and South Downs College. Although I enjoyed my time as a sports therapist I decided I needed a career change and to be in an idustry that could match my ambition and felt I had a lot of transferrable skills to head into a career in Recruitment.
After speaking to the guys at Fyba Talent, I saw the vision and enthusiasm within the team and it was something I immediately wanted to be a part of. The long team goals are endless and I am excited to where this opportunity takes me.
I spend my free time socialising and watching my favourite sports; football, golf and American football.
Focus at Fyba:
As a member of the Talent Coordinator team I focus on working with candidates to secure their next roles across a number of sectors and locations. Sector focus; Water, Technical Sales and Shared services.

At Fyba, it’s about so much more than recruitment.
