Bio
Tom Koukoulis
I approached Pete after reading one of his poignant posts on flexi-time. As a java developer I had been looking for a part-time role for quite some time with no luck. Pete took the time to listen to me and go through my CV suggesting some very apt improvements. We had a few chats and I felt that he genuinely cared to help. Taking the time to listen to me, alongside with his no-nonsense advice I managed to find a great part-time job within a month. I am ever so grateful for his help.

Pete has played an instrumental role throughout my whole career in Recruitment. We first worked together at Computer People, where he showed me the ropes. He was an amazing mentor on how you should do tech recruitment. When the opportunity came up to join his team at Talent Point it was an offer I couldn't refuse. I can honestly say he is one of the most knowledge recruiters I've ever met. He fully understands the needs of engineering departments and can provide great advice on how to attract top talent. If you're going to have a discussion on hiring plans, trust me, you want him in the room.

Pete placed me at Dunelm and I was a bit unsure about the project to begin with. Luckily he had full insight into where the project was going and convinced me to stay by speaking to stakeholders and getting me on the right track. It was a hugely successful project and Pete went on to help us find outstanding people to deliver it too. He has always offered me honest advice and I would recommend him.
