Bio
Paul Bowkett
I appointed Russ on recommendation from a mutual contact and found him to be dedicated, focussed and very well organised. His planning and personal organisation of his business work day and week, is second to none. His market knowledge and insight proved to be a major contributiing factor to his success with me at Goliath and he was frequently one of a small team who came to me with answers and not just problems or issues. I don't hesitate in recommending Russ to other either as an employee or supplier.
