In addition to being a fantastic ambassador for SOPHiA GENETICS, Callum provided excellent guidance during the executive recruiting process. He was highly responsive, knowledgeable and efficient, and at the same time was warm and friendly, making every one of our interactions both insightful and pleasant. Really glad I had a chance to work with Callum!

Giovanni Velotta

I worked with Callum on different processes as hiring manager and he was super precise, concise but also exhaustive. He was seeking constant feedback from me and the candidates, the experience was smooth and very pleasant, he is professional but always open to a laugh. I really recommend working with him!

Malini Pearce

Callum was excellent to work with when I was interviewing with SOPHiA. He was incredibly responsive and diligent during the entire process. He followed up, answered questions, arranged interviews and continued to connect with me, to make sure I was getting along okay, after I was hired. Any organization would be lucky to have Callum on their recruiting team!

It was designed to challenge both Public and Private sectors, and implement policies for Transport in the interest of Young People. The Transport Policy Manger role drew upon the skills and contacts I had developed as a Portfolio Manager, however, I now saw myself Lobbying sectors at a Regional and National level, rather than just County-Wide, and implementing policies for a national body.
