About

The Expertise Behind the Placement

With over 25 years of experience dedicated to strategic leadership acquisition across core sectors including Healthcare, Social Care, Education, and Commercial Sales, I specialise in identifying and securing the C-Suite and Managing Director talent that drives enterprise value.

My career is founded on a proven triad of Integrity, Precision, and Results. I am known for bringing energy, a positive outlook, and a genuine people-first approach to high-stakes executive engagements, ensuring a superior experience for both the client and the candidate.

As an executive search leader, my track record demonstrates consistent success in driving business growth through strategic talent placement, developing high-performing internal teams, and forging client relationships that last for decades. My expertise spans complex recruitment strategy, international talent acquisition, and transformational executive search across both the UK and global markets.

Philosophy

"Your vibe attracts your tribe" is more than just a quote - it’s a principle I live by for successful recruitment. The energy, values, and culture of my business naturally attract candidates who align with my vision. By finding recruits who fit our ethos, we ensure better collaboration, stronger engagement, and long-term success. At Ainsworth Recruitment, I focus on matching not just skills but shared values, because I believe the right team creates the right results. Let me help you build a tribe that thrives together.
