Bio
Michelle Dorgan
Richard is a highly conscientious staff member with great communication skills and an impressive appetite to learn and develop. He works well both on his own and as part of a team and is always keen to take on new projects. He listens and takes onboard instructions, questions and challenges where appropriate and delivers to a high standard. I have no hesitation in recommending Richard and his work during his time at Oaks and am confident he will go far in his chosen career.

Richard worked for Oaks on an internship during the summer of 2011. Throughout his time with the company he demonstrated great commitment and skill to all the tasks he was asked to complete. In addition to his obvious technical abilities Richard has a fantastic personality and fitted in to all aspects of team working. I would have no hesitation appointing Richard within Oaks or recommending him to another employer.
