@michaelbentil
I deliver executive and specialist recruitment across Finance, AI and technology throughout EMEA.
What I'm looking for
I've delivered end-to-end executive and specialist recruitment across Finance, AI and technology markets in the UK, Benelux and wider EMEA. Through Talent Precision Global, I partner directly with founders, CFOs and hiring managers on permanent, interim and project-based appointments.
I build targeted passive pipelines, assess candidates through structured interviews, and manage hiring from briefing through onboarding. My recent searches include Senior Machine Learning Engineering, AI-enabled Technical Customer Support, finance leadership, FP&A, and finance transformation.
Previously, I generated approximately £575,000 in billings at EMEA Recruitment through repeat business, executive search and long-term client relationships. I also bring commercial, account management and ATS consulting experience, alongside co-founding an established training and qualifications provider.
