I run the Ringstone BD team and have extensive experience in sales and marketing as well as corporate finance. I owned a manufacturing company in Thailand and a distribution company in Dubai.
I have spent 25 years in the Far East and Middle East and returned to the UK in 2012.
My time was spent in Bangkok, Dubai, Hong Kong and China raising Capital for manufacturing and property development.
I sold the factory in 2007 and semi-retired but then was fascinated about the emergence of China and spent 5 years in China and Hong Kong working as a consultant to British manufacturers, returning to the UK to assist Ringstone with their overseas ambitions.
I am interested in working with disruptive and innovative companies that want to partner with a recruitment business that can offer something different. Our team are a blend of traditional recruiters, international entrepreneurs and Silicon Valley veterans, and we partner with specialists in the AI / Data field who seek to grow aggressively.
