I have spent 20 successful years consulting and recruiting and have interviewed well over 7000 people .

 

It takes a certain type of profile and character to succeed in the fluid & dynamic structure of an SME or Family Business, and I know how to pick ’em! But first things first, is the business ready for them and have you validated and defined the role?
