About Us

John’s story

Having spent the last 10+ years working for recruitment firms both large and small, I founded BRD Search with the goal of delivering exceptional customer service to clients and candidates alike. Building lasting relationships, adding value to your recruitment experience and hopefully having some fun along the way.

Away from recruitment

Being a father of three means life is pretty busy, very eventful and great fun! When I’m not ferrying the children to their various activities, we love exploring the local area together, especially a good walk in the countryside, ideally one that ends at a local pub.

With over a decade of experience in the staffing world, we know what works and what doesn’t. BRD was created to do things differently, raising the bar in standards throughout your recruitment journey: to combine deep market insight with a forward-thinking approach that embraces new ideas and new technology while keeping people front and centre.

When I do manage to carve out some time for myself, I’m usually outdoors, either heading into the countryside for a trail run or getting out on my mountain bike. However, my greatest passion outside of family is without question, golf. I love exploring the incredible courses we have across Britain, and the game has taken me to some truly fantastic places!

A word of warning though… get me started on links golf courses and you could be in for a very long conversation!

The name BRD means a lot to us, it’s made up of the first initials of John’s three children, serving as a daily reminder of why this business exists: to build something meaningful, honest, and lasting; much like the relationships we look to cultivate. Every decision we make and every connection we form is guided by those values. Choosing the long-term relationship over any quick win every time is a no brainer for us!
