Call me a weirdo if you like but I love recruitment. I’m sure you have heard this many times but I really did fall into it in 1987 and I am so glad I did. I’m really passionate about delivering the best service to both candidates and companies. I started Technical Resources in April 2000 after starting as a consultant at MTS in Slough in 1987. I worked my way up to MD of corporate services group Technical Division. When I left in 1999 we had 1,250 contractors and our turnover was £30m. For me, it’s all about references, references, references. If I could, I would probably uninvent the CV. CVs stop the flow of recruitment. Allow us to do our job properly, let us do the referencing and put the right candidates in front of you. An interesting fact about me? Ok, guess which ones of these is true: My grandfather was born in a workhouse in Brighton, I was a choir boy in Westminster Abbey or I was a lead singer in a punk band…

For 10 years I worked for River Island in Operations and then with Arcadia for 6 years as a Regional Manager covering the South of the UK. I then moved from Fashion Retail to start Technical Resources with Alan. As the company has grown over the years, my role has developed into dealing with the overall running of the business including Finance, Internal HR and Payroll.

I focus on the absolute delivery of every opportunity here at Technical Resources. As the company has been aggressively growing, I can proudly say that I have been able to work my way up from Resourcer to the position of Operations Director. As a result of this, I have personally experienced every aspect of the Recruitment process. My role is very much an operational one and covers typical activities such as daily monitoring, ensuring our strategy is on track, our service is exemplary and striving for continuous improvements across all parts of the business. We have two customers, clients & candidates, and I'm always looking at what could work better for both.
David Bowles
Operations Director

With 7 years’ experience in my division, I’m able to offer Fire and Security expertise to ensure my clients to get the best people. I have a very hands-on role with a great deal of variety as Divisional Manager for the Fire and Security Division. Typically my day involves ensuring our operations work efficiently and we provide an outstanding service not only to our clients but also to our many candidates. This ranges from candidate registration, training and support through to the quality of the delivery of our service. There is always high productivity in the office as everyone wants the business to continue to grow. Like most people here, I'm a massive Chelsea fan and go to Stamford Bridge whenever I can. I've completed Tough Mudder twice with the company and love to travel.

"Richard is a highly professional and efficient recruitment consultant, who really listens to your needs and wants everything for your next role in order to match you to a well suited organisation." The key to our success is our relationships we build with our clients and candidates. I am a specialist Fire & Security recruiter, delivering mid-level through to senior level placements. I am closely involved in the overall recruitment process and the delivery of candidates to existing and new clients. For over 7 years, I have taken pride in giving the best client satisfaction, ensuring we look at the bigger picture with them so we can achieve this and build a long lasting relationship. I am proud of the progression I have made from Resourcer to one of the most successful consultants in the Fire & Security industry. I am a big football fan and season ticket holder for Chelsea. In the rest of my spare time, I play golf and the guitar.

As an Account Manager in the Fire and Security Sector, I am responsible for making sure that Security job seekers and employers are happy with the services we provide. I have nearly five years' knowledge and experience in this field, initially working as a resourcer before progressing to the position I'm in now. Through hard work, I have gained a lot of expierence in getting results that both our clients and candidates are happy with. I love keeping active and used to play football for Reading and I've also completed a Half Marathon. I've recently got married and, for our honeymoon, we went to the Arctic Circle.

I am new in both recruitment and the Fire & Security industry, but I am thoroughly enjoying my role here as I learn the ropes. I am responsible for sourcing and generating permanent candidates within both the Senior and Engineering teams for Fire & Security. I get great satisfaction from speaking with candidates and finding them better jobs! I have a huge passion for football and play every Sunday.

"Had a great experience with Technical Resources, Nick was amazing and helped me get into a job that I love, 5 stars all round- highly recommended." Quality is an integral part of everything we do here and highly important to me. As Manager of the Telecoms Division at Technical Resources, I ensure our client’s requirements are clear, which enables us to always be certain that we are putting forward the best candidates. We have been successful in building fibre planning teams from scratch, mobilising large workforces of FTTH Engineers abroad and recruiting large numbers of project supervisors for national data cabling projects within a few weeks. I always get great satisfaction from getting our clients and candidates exactly what they want. I'm interested in travelling and once visited 15 countries in one year. I'm into extreme sports and have broken my arm twice taking part in them: once when I was snowboarding and once on the monkeybars...

I match the very best people to positions within the Telecommunications sector, from engineers to senior managers. As a Resourcer, I am tasked with keeping my finger on the pulse of leading vacancies in the sector. Integrated teamwork is the key to achieving top satisfaction from our clients and candidates. I'm upfront, honest and always pursue getting the best people for the right job. I love football and play it semi-professionally. I will go to Dubai whenever I can, it's like a second home to me. It was there that I caught, cooked and ate a shark.

Having worked at Technical Resources for a number of years, I have developed a specialist knowledge within the Fire & Security sector. My work involves meeting new clients, discussing both temporary and permanent recruitment requirements as well as managing the Fire & Security Contract team. I’m very committed to getting the job done and to achieve an outstanding result for all parties. I'm a believer in strong communication so I make sure I speak to clients and candidates to find out exactly what they want. There is never a dull day working here! Everything is fast paced with a lot of jobs available to work so I can never get bored. I enjoy travelling and have visited various interesting and wonderful places. I'm really into keeping fit and have run the London Marathon as well as completed a 1,000 mile cycle to Spain- both for charity. I love my sport; mainly football, squash and golf.

I predominantly find candidates across the Fire & Security sector. I have worked across both the Contract and the Permanent sectors, mainly resourcing people for jobs as well as obtaining their compliance and references. I love the fast paced environment and how sociable the role is...I spend the day talking to people, learning their background and helping them find a job. I love football and am a platinum season ticket holder for Spurs (there's only 500 of us!) Also, despite my surname, I love a soft drink and very rarely drink water...

On a day-to-day basis I spend a lot of time talking to clients in the Telecoms sector. Speaking to people is an important aspect of my role as it helps us develop a highly qualified resource of excellent candidates and to really understand our clients’ needs. I live for the fast pace in the office as it keeps me busy and allows us all to build our skill set quickly. Which helps us grow more as a team and company.

The recruitment industry is a new chapter for me and I love it so far! As a new recruit, I find the fast-paced nature of the Contract Division both exciting and rewarding, helping with the process of placing the right candidate for the right job. You learn something new every day! I am currently resourcing for each industry the company is servicing. Working for each sector gives me an understanding of the industry and what is important for both the client and the candidate. I love the fact that every day is different in recruitment, and that you are constantly pushing yourself to be better. Finding opportunities and helping people is what really drives me on a daily basis. Having been fortunate to have travelled the world in a full-time band for the past 10 years, it has given me a real appreciation and outlook on life. I love meeting new people and hearing about their stories. I love football, squash, and keeping fit. I'm also a massive foodie, so love cooking and ea

"I've been working as a contractor for a number of years now with the trusted support of Hayley Moore. Her friendly and reliable service is second to none." I bring in and recruit the best Fire & Security contractors. I started here as a temp before being offered a full-time, permanent position. When I was temping, I resourced candidates across the whole of the Contract division. Ever since I've gone full-time here, I've been resourcing candidates for the Fire & Security Contract Division. I look after and manage all of the Fire & Security candidates that are working for us- this includes checking in with them on site, making sure their timesheets are in on time and aftercare. I also recruit new Fire & Security contractors for up and coming contracts- making sure they have all the qualifications and experience. I love working here- everything is fast paced and there is always something to help you improve. I love horse riding and used to do it once or twice a week. I also went travelling for four months in South East Asia before I started here which was terrifying but rewarding.

I am responsible for sourcing the best candidates from the market and guiding them to the best clients in the industry. I'm relatively new to recruitment and new to the Fire & Security industry- but I'm already enjoying helping people get their ideal role and job satisfaction. I love going to gigs and go as regularly as I can. On the weekends I play golf with my brother and, when I can, I will play rugby and in my down time, I love to cook.

I joined Technical Resources in 2014 as a Compliance Manager where I worked with the Contract Division to ensure that processes were implemented and run efficiently. The knowledge and experience I have gained I use to implement and run the Finances efficiently. Giving our Clients and Candidates a first-rate experience is very important to me. We are able to do this as we work dynamically as a team to always produce the best results.

As an Operations Assistant, I ensure the permanent team work within guidelines and that candidates are fully compliant when scheduling interviews. I strive to get to know new people, which I believe is the key in recruitment. I am continuously learning from the people I work with, so I can always better my performance. I love musical theatre and went to performing arts school. I can speak Greek and my claim to fame is I was a mascot at the very first game at the new Wembley!

I joined Technical Resources just over 2 years ago, straight from college where I was doing a Fashion Diploma in Fashion Business & Marketing. When I started here I was a compliance administrator, this entailed looking over contracts for candidates, completing compliance checks & sales admin tasks. My role now as Marketing Executive is much differnet to my previous role. I spend my days sending marketing campaigns, improving our website and advertising jobs. Working here is a joy as the whole team is so lovely, and we're like one big family. I love fashion, spending time with Friends, Family and my dog Beau.

As the Office Manager, it’s my responsibility to ensure everything is running smoothly. I’ve been in Office Management for 10 years and absolutely love it. Each day can be so different and I really enjoying being able to help people. It’s great working in a busy, energised environment. The atmosphere in the office is great and the team are brilliant to work with. Having recently moved to a new house, I’ve found that I love doing a bit of DIY! MY weekends are usually full of some house project or another. Although, I always find time to relax, see friends or family and enjoy a glass of wine…or two!

If you think I'm a regular dog, you're barking up the wrong tree. It's my job within the company to obtain leads, whilst making sure we're not constantly hounding our customers. Having been with Technical Resources fur over a year, I can comfortably say our clients and candidates never receive a paw service. Sometimes my weekends get a bit too heavy and I feel ruff the next day but I work hard and I play hard. I like big mutts and I cannot lie...
