“I’ve always loved the variety and challenge of tech recruitment – from helping a scaling SaaS business hire its first Head of Engineering to building contract project teams across Europe. For me, it’s about listening, advising, and delivering every time.”
“Recruitment is never just about filling a vacancy. It’s about finding the right person, for the right challenge, at the right time – and doing that with honesty, care and pace.”
A father of six, and a proud grandfather, Lee’s spare time revolves around family, camping trips, and supporting his local Scouts. You’ll likely find him outdoors – or trying to catch up with everyone all at once.
