Anything worth doing is worth overdoing
Ed’s 10+ years of finance recruitment in Sydney transcends industries and focuses on the mid-senior to senior leadership market. Having built a network of over 8,000 LinkedIn connections and placing close to 30 executive finance roles in the past 3 years, Ed prides himself on being connected to the market in a way not many can match. His consultative and honest approach typically offers insight to those looking for something that can’t be found on job boards or CV’s.
Having completed his bachelor’s degree at ACU, Ed continued his studies via a Juris Doctor with UTS. Working three jobs and balancing the schedule of university taught Ed the value of time management and prioritisation. After completing a summer internship with a law firm, Ed took up a graduate position with a Norwegian shipping company which offered him valuable commercial experience across divisions, and provided him with his first exposure to recruitment; he has never looked back.
Through the successful management of over 200 finance mandates during his recruitment career, Ed has built a reputation as one of Sydney’s most reliable recruiters and beyond managing mandates, he continues to provide valuable insight to the recruitment community; regularly providing opinions to the editors of some leading e-learning publications and has also co-hosted ‘next generation’ events with local high schools, presenting a resume writing course and other ad-hoc learning material to the next generation.
