I've worked in the automotive industry for 30 years at Reg Vardy, Benfield, Lookers and Fleet Alliance. Most of that was with Colin, as both colleagues and friends. My roles relied on building high performing teams of great people. So I've interviewed, recruited and worked with literally thousands of talented people, and met thousands more at manufacturer meetings and industry events. Our sector is blessed to attract some really talented people, with strong characters and a great sense of humour! So I'm delighted to now be in a role where I can reconnect with old friends, meet lots of interesting new people and help them fulfil their career ambitions.

I have worked in Automotive for more than 30 years at Reg Vardy/Pendragon and Benfield/Lookers, the last 10 years have been in senior roles representing some iconic brands. One of my key goals over the last 10 years has been to build high performing teams with great culture with strong succession plans, where we couldn’t ’grow own own’ recruitment was imperative, with this in mind I feel in a strong position to support both client and candidates to enable a great fit.
Nigel and Colin have been colleagues and friends for most of my career, the chance to join Team Pybus was one that I couldn’t resist, I’m delighted to be part of the team and look forward to helping clients and candidates find the perfect match.
