Job Titles:

Marhaba! I am a Director at Piermont Search bringing with me over a decade of international recruitment experience gained in London and the UAE. Together James and I have held the responsibility for the strategic and operational execution of the Piermont business since its inception in 2014. I have managed and developed shared service recruitment teams covering HR, legal, sales and marketing, finance and administration, recruiting in to a wide variety of industries across the UK and MEA regions. My area of specialism is Emiratisation; I have led a number of localisation campaigns, placing a high-volume of talented Emiratis across numerous business divisions at all levels since 2008. Between my two sons and the Piermont business I'm kept very busy!
