Bio
Dominic Sluiter
Lesley was there with me when we started setting up STITCH_3D. STITCH_3D is a PVH corporate startup for which we hired over 25 people in 1 year mostly in a very new world of 3D fashion. Lesley kept her head cool, emerged herself into Digital Fashion never lost her great sense of humor and in the mean time we got the best talent in house across tech, design and product. What stands out for me is her approachable style which is easy and fun to work with in combination with a ability to adjust to any situation. That makes her the TA partner you want to have on your side in a any situation.

Lesley was a client of mine and during our time working together we built a great collaboration. Lesley has excellent knowledge of the market and what it takes to attract top talent to any business. She was always very open and provided constructive feedback which in-turn was of great support to me. I would highly recommend Lesley for her commitment, hard work and ability to make what can at times be a challenging process all the more stress-free. The latter being something that really helped the overall candidate experience. I'd welcome the chance to work together with Lesley again.
