David graduated in Manufacturing and spent the early part of his career in Design and Project Management with Ford Motor Company, Hyde Group and MAHR GMBH. David entered the recruitment industry over 20 years ago, moving on to join a FTSE 250 global recruitment company in 2001 where he was one of four founding consultants in the Engineering, Construction and Supply Chain division. David spent over six years in this business,  managing and growing teams in the Northwest, recruiting for Blue Chips, SME’s and privately owned business.

David saw the gap for a recruitment business with transparency, drive and market knowledge and founded Core Talent in 2007 with Damian Diggles.

David’s Recruitment and Engineering experience along with a strong network of Clients and Candidates has been instrumental in Core Talents growth.
