Bio
Ryan Connolly
I have previously worked with James in Yell, Optimize and Exchange&Mart where no other colleague has improved my skills as much as him. In all three companies, he has excelled and been a very important member of staff in terms of character and the business he brings in. His knowledge on digital products are second to none and always keeps on top of new strategies and changes within the market which makes him a vital contact in this industry. A great asset to any business and will do very well the rest of his career.

James joined our team just over a year ago and had less experience in our department than anyone else. This didn't stop him from being one of a few annual achievers in his first full year in the role. A very quick learner and eager to do well he has a very bright future in front of him in sales. I worked in very close quarters with him and he impressed me every day with his work ethic, and his ideas. Always thinking up new ways to approach customers, several of which I adopted myself to great success. A great asset to hibu and any future employer.
