What I'm looking for

I'm looking for outside IR35 contracts where I can deliver executive search, talent intelligence, and transformation-focused hiring for consulting, private equity, technology, and growth-focused businesses.

I've delivered retained executive searches for Director, Partner and C-suite roles at Alevio Consulting across private equity, consulting, technology, and fire and security. I partner with investors and senior stakeholders to identify leaders who support growth and transformation.

I combine executive market mapping, talent intelligence, competitor benchmarking, and structured assessment to guide strategic hiring decisions. My sourcing strategies increased qualified executive submissions by 40%, while my assessment processes contributed to an 85% offer acceptance rate.

Across the UK, EMEA, and APAC, I've led talent acquisition, recruitment operations, and consulting engagements for technology, financial, manufacturing, education, and private-equity-backed businesses. I've supported finance transformation hiring at a leading UK bank and built leadership pipelines through a network of 100+ senior executives.

I'm looking for outside IR35 contracts where I can bring data-driven talent strategy, stakeholder advisory, and scalable delivery models to complex hiring and transformation challenges.
