Gary McPhee - Director & Co-Founder
Speciality: Executive Recruitment – Children’s Services – Public Sector
Gary’s career in recruitment started by chance after having to end his professional sports career early, due to injury. In hindsight he realises the discipline and mental toughness he learned whilst working in the sports environment gave him the strong foundations needed to have a successful sales career in the recruitment industry.
In Gary’s early recruitment career, he previously worked for Beresford Blake Thomas, Randstad and Eden Brown. He has always specialised in executive level recruitment within the social care sector and has a proven track record in the industry as a Consultant, Senior Manager and Director. His enthusiasm, determination and ability to motivate others have seen both Gary and the teams he has managed quickly excel in high pressured sales environments.
As well as managing the day to day running and growth of Hampton’s, Gary specialises in working with candidates seeking either operational or strategic roles within children’s services.
