Bio
Alisdair Martin
In my capacity as CEO of TRMG I worked closely with Tracey for over 10 years. Tracey is one of the most reliable team members I have ever worked with. She quietly and successfully performed all the functions of her role with such relentless consistency that it was easy to take for granted the critical work she did and overlook how vital she was to the success of our business. I had absolute confidence in her ability to take responsibility for critical decisions with all of our contracts from 'mum & pop shops' to international, executive-level clients. Tracey is a sharp, dependable professional who always gets the job done. She is extremely diligent in her work and in particular has the ability to execute tasks and meet deadlines under extreme high pressure. Having recruited hundreds of staff over my career my career I can say with confidence that Tracey is a rare find, who I would recommend without reservation to any future employer. I welcome any reference requests.
