It's been a year since I've worked together with James to digitalize a large Hotel Group. I thoroughly enjoy my time working with James. Beyond that, he is an impressive skilled and funny guy. His knowledge and expertise is a big advantage to the project. He manages to foster positive and proactive discussions. I hope to join James on more projects in the future.

It has been my pleasure to work with James at Quadriga for the past 4 years and during that time he has demonstrated all of the skills and leadership qualities a global business requires from its management team. While James has many strings to his bow his abilities in Sales, Commercial / Negotiation and Solution Consultation stand out as exceptional. A valuable asset for any business concerned with Customer Service coupled with Sales performance.
