Bio
Arnaud Wauthelet
Grant was tasked to find several profiles in order to fill an urgent position. He acted fast and came up with 3 very good and suitable candidates. This enabled us to hire a procurement professional within 20 days. He is also very proactive and thinking out of the box to find suitable candidates for very specific and niche requirements.

Grant found me on Linkedin and reached out to me to check if I am considering changing my job. We had a call in order for him to understand what my wish for future carrier growth would be, and after that he approached me every time he had an interesting opportunity. Having spoken with various other Head Hunters, Grant was the only one, who really put his heart and soul into finding the correct position for me. He really listened to what I want to do and where I imagine myself further developing. He supported me in this transitional journey and always took time to give me guidance and listen to me. I am in my current position thanks to him. Thanks Grant!
