About me
I have over 20 years’ recruitment and executive search experience having worked in the finance and banking sector, helping thousands of individuals find new roles at all levels. I am still a Director at Alan Mitchell – a well-established and successful executive search firm which focuses on the Front Office Investment Banking Sector
I also work as a careers adviser at secondary schools in Surrey and am fully DBS cleared. I work with students from year 9 to year 13 and guide then through their options choices, work experience, job hunting, apprenticeships, University choices, 6th form options and much more.
My network, up to date understanding of the current world of work and experience of the best techniques to build and develop careers will help you make crucial decisions and develop a simple plan to ensure you reach your goals.
