I had the pleasure of working within Roberts highly successful Banking and Finance team at Elan IT in London. I always found him to be a professional and motivational leader, providing effective recruitment solutions for both clients and candidates. His communication and motivational skills are of the highest standard and he has deep market knowledge across the financial services industry, both business and technology. He would be an asset to any company and I would welcome the opportunity of working with Robert again in the future.
