About Me

Connecting top talent with leading roles in Facilities Management.

I have been in the Recruitment Industry for over 4 years and have successfully placed candidates at all levels, from executive leadership to entry-level roles. With over 2 years specializing in Facilities Management Recruitment, I bring a strategic and personalised approach to every search, ensuring clients connect with the best talent to drive success in the FM sector and candidates find the right companies to drive their career growth.

Facilities Management, an up-and-coming profession.

The FM industry is expected to see a 6% growth over the next decade. I’ve come from a hospitality background where customer service is just part of the role. Facilities Management is similar in some ways - it's about the buildings, the technical knowledge, the resilience, but also, the people. I look out for candidates with all these skills.

Nature, History, Technology, People

Growing up in South Africa I have always had a keen interest in nature, most of the time you will find me out and about in green spaces. I have a particular interest in the Anglo Zulu war after spending over 4 years in Rorke’s Drift. I am also very passionate about puzzles, gaming, and all things nerdy which helps keep my brain active.
