Arun has been a pleasure to work with whilst being with The Chemistry Group. He is a ball of energy and someone that is always hungry to do more and do a better job. If you want someone who is ready to become an advocate for your brand and works amazingly well with people, then Arun is your man.

Madeleine Scott

Arun brings a huge amount of enthusiasm to the workplace and is interested in (and knowledgeable about) a wide range of psychological topics. He has lots of ideas about how to improve the workplace and was a huge help in developing a new psychometric tool to measure motivations. He's a pleasure to work with.

Benjamin Western

I have worked with Arun for about six months now and I have enjoyed every interaction. He's incredibly authentic, speaks without nonsense, is empathetic, and very inquisitive. He is always be a joy to be around and his quite brilliant mind will make him a success in anything he turns his hand to. He also has great hair, which isn't a deal breaker, is a great bonus.
