Founder & Co-Owner

Paul is the Founder of EMEA Recruitment and set up the company in 2007. He remains hands-on in the business, with over 20 years of international recruitment experience, and is highly skilled in recruiting the strongest talent for our clients.

Paul’s entrepreneurial spirit means that he implements new ideas and initiatives regularly, keeping EMEA Recruitment current and in tune with the markets in which we recruit. 

Internally, he leads our coaching and mentoring programme, specifically linked to the work of Tony Robbins, dedicated to getting people to become the best version of themselves.

As part of his role, he also hosts the EMEA Recruitment podcast in partnership with Operation Smile. This platform invites leaders across our network to share their career and company insights, offering guidance on how to emulate their journeys and grow as a professional.

Paul likes the variety a recruitment career offers, with every day bringing a new challenge. By truly listening to his candidates and clients, Paul can focus on providing solutions, empathise and build authentic, long-term partnerships.

As a people business, Paul enjoys working with a "product" that has a mind of its own and having the opportunity to influence people on a day-to-day basis.

Paul’s Interests

With an emphasis on continuous learning and development, Paul regularly reads life coaching and self-development books. He also enjoys health and fitness, particularly weight training and running.

Paul enjoys spending time with family and is a big fan of Liverpoool FC.

He also has other business interests, including a property investment company, which he runs with his wife, Kelly.

Paul is an ambassador of Operation Smile, an international medical charity delivering free surgery to children suffering from cleft lip and palate - a mission that Paul has a strong personal connection with.

Testimonial

I've known and worked with Paul and his team at EMEA Recruitment for several years, both as a recruiter and a job seeker.

What distinguishes Paul and his team is that they listen to their client's needs to understand the company and requirements of the open position, and then conduct very thorough research to craft a carefully selected shortlist of matching candidates.

This approach gives excellent results for recruiting companies and job applicants alike and helps save time and energy for everyone involved.
