About me

David

I am the Director of Legal Technology Recruitment. I am a big Star Wars (bordering on geek) and love holidaying on the Isle of Wight with my wife.

David has been fantastic, I’ve had two other recruiters from diffrent ferms, but David made me feel like I was working with him, not just people showing me job options I’ve already spotted on Linked In, he’s helped me each step of the way and given some fantastic advise, not only would I recommend Identifi Global to friends, I’d recommend David personally best recruiter I’ve ever had the chance to work with.
