I lead Executive Search at Signify Technology, partnering with founders, private equity firms, and executive leadership teams to identify and hire transformational leaders who drive long-term business growth.
With over seven years of experience in executive consulting, I’ve built a reputation for delivering successful searches in highly competitive markets. Throughout my career, I’ve generated $900K+ in annual billings, maintained a 92% search fill rate, consistently exceeded performance targets, and placed more than 100 senior professionals into leadership positions.
My expertise includes retained executive search for C-suite and senior leadership roles, executive hiring strategy, succession planning, leadership advisory, compensation benchmarking, and market intelligence. I’ve partnered with organisations across Technology (AI, SaaS, Cybersecurity, Data, IT), Manufacturing, Healthcare, Private Equity, Engineering, Construction, Logistics & Supply Chain, Financial Services, and Legal, helping clients secure leaders who create lasting business impact.
Having worked extensively with EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) companies, I understand the unique challenges founder-led organisations face as they scale. I believe exceptional executive consulting goes beyond simply identifying candidates; it requires an understanding of leadership, culture, values, and long-term business objectives to ensure every appointment creates a lasting impact.
Beyond executing searches, I partner with CEOs, founders, and executive leadership teams to provide strategic guidance on executive hiring, organisational design, and succession planning.
I’m certified in High-Trust Leadership and believe that trust is the foundation of every successful client-candidate partnership.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and four children, serving in my local church, coaching my son’s soccer team, tackling home improvement projects, and squeezing in a game of pickleball whenever I can.
