About James

I lead the team in finding solutions for clients and candidates across health, safety, environment and sustainability.

Work highlight

Building and nurturing a great team to connect the top talent across health, safety, environment & sustainability which allows us to fulfil our purpose as a business – “Be a vehicle of positive change and play a part in building a more sustainable future”.

Along the journey, I have developed long term relationships with clients and candidates and I'm in the privileged position of having in depth knowledge of business challenges and personal career goals. Being able to match these truly changes lives and makes the world we live a better place – this is the highlight but also what keeps us constantly looking to improve!

Out of office

I grew up in New Zealand and completed University there. Little known fact - I was an extra in Lord of the Rings! Passionate about sustainability which I studied at University, my first role was with the WWF in Australia working in the Asia Pacific Climate Change Team. I was also lucky enough to launch a business in China prior to starting in health, safety and sustainability recruitment in the UK in 2008.
