database of candidates.
Advertising: utilising our website,

Matthew Clarke:
Director – Information Technology
Bournemouth University – Business Studies
“Having failed to beat Andy Murray at tennis I redirected my
competitive nature into recruitment. Working on a global platform,
interacting with people from different backgrounds and
cultures keeps my job interesting and engaging. Being able to apply the
knowledge I have gained to develop and maintain strong partnerships
ensures the service that my team and I provide is world class.”
Shane Coombes:
Vice President – Information Technology
St Mary’s University – Sport Science
“I am the Head of Business Development across the
Information Technology division. Having previously worked on
the full lifecycle of recruitment, business development stood
out as my strength. Having ran for England and played table tennis at a national
level, personal progression has always been at the centre of everything I do. My
personality lends itself to recruitment in both a competitive aspect and getting the
job done to a world class standard. The satisfaction of building long-term
partnerships with clients, not just knowing them on a business level but getting to
know them on a personal level, provides not just success within the workplace but
success at a personal level.”

“Previously I was an IT contractor at Deutsche Bank,
I now manage both 360 and IT delivery teams at Henlow.
Being able to directly engage with clients and candidates to
form a partnership with mutual benefits really drives me.
I enjoy the challenge of recruitment because each client
has different needs providing me with the opportunity to
continuously seek a way of improving the value we add to
their team and organisation.”
Warren Hughes:
Vice President – Information Technology
Liverpool Hope University - Drama
“I am currently heading up the Development division at
Henlow. Coming from a varied background of classical
percussion, the military and working in the court system, I
wanted to work in an industry that allowed people to get out what they put in,
where meritocracy wins over the formal corporate structure and you are
rewarded based on results rather than time spent in a company. Covering both
Financial Markets and Information Technology gives me one of the most varied
roles within the company, I am able to deal with all types of clients, candidates
and manage a varied team”

University of Warwick - BSc

“I was part of the Men’s Lacrosse team at Warwick.
Naturally to balance it out, I thought trying out for
cheerleading would be a good laugh. I ended up getting onto
the cheerleading large stunt squad, stuck with it and we became
British champions in my final year. Transitioning my competitive
nature into recruitment, I focus on front office search spanning
across sales and trading, structuring and strats. I currently lead a
team but remain hands on focusing on business development and
sourcing talented candidates for my clients directly.
The clients and candidates that I work with are all different,
making every search I am engaged on more interesting. It’s also
a nice challenge to find high calibre individual in specialist areas
of expertise – call it the ‘Thrill of the Hunt!’”
