If you’ve come this far, you probably want to know a bit about me, so here goes…. 🥁On a daily basis I’m scouring the UK for the very best talent in the world of JavaScript, whether your preference is Node.js, being more frontend focussed with React or Angular (or one of the other upcoming frameworks), or maybe you like a bit of everything - I don\'t discriminate. I also spend my time working with great businesses, ideally in the worlds of Tech4Good and Digital!But what about the man behind the profile! What gets me out of bed in the morning and into the office; Helping people find really great jobs! Being part of an organisation that gives back to the community and makes a positive impact on the world Working alongside great humans, who share the same values as myself Supporting diversity in the tech sector So why would you want to work with me; I put a huge amount of emphasis on listening – I want to fully understand what it is that YOU want from your career move I’m never going to be that annoying recruiter that tells you to take a job that you don’t absolutely love I’m always on the lookout for ways to get better and improve – if you’ve got any book or podcast recommendations, let me know!Away from the recruitment desk, I’m a terrible yet aspiring golfer (PB is currently 97!), an Indie-head and a Bristol Bears season ticket holder (it seemed like a good idea at the start of the season…) Drop me a message if you’d like a chat d•••@sr2rec.co.uk 01•••••••15
