How many jobs does one guy need?

How many jobs does one guy need?

Thanks for all of the lovely ‘congrats on the new job’ messages I’ve been receiving recently, and apologies if I’ve not replied to all of them personally to explain what’s going on.

Even if you’ve not messaged me, you may have noticed a few changes to my LinkedIn profile recently and wondered why on earth I keep changing jobs, now finding myself Founder and Chief Executive of KDR Talent Solutions!

I’ve always fundamentally believed that to be successful as a recruitment business, you need to have in depth, specialist knowledge of a niche market rather than trying to be all things to all people. In the case of KDR Recruitment, that’s always been data, tech and analytics, originally in the UK and now also in the USA and Europe. But Covid-19 has seen that market squeezed and despite signs of recovery, I don’t anticipate an instant bounceback.

Channelling the entrepreneurial spirit that drove me to set up KDR nearly 17 years ago, I’ve recognised that we can offer complementary, specialist recruitment services to our clients which will help us diversify and secure our future growth. And so we are proud to launch:

Counting House to serve the accountancy and finance market, where we see a lot of demand for numbers people with a good understanding of tech and data. @Anthony Mussell moves over from KDR Recruitment to head up Counting House.

Newgold Executive to focus on executive search and selection, still in our original data, tech and analytics market. Mark Townsend will be leading the team here.

Nothing will change for KDR Recruitment, and the new parent company KDR Talent Solutions simply provides a home for all three group brands, the name leveraging the strong reputation that KDR has built over the years.

As the markets open up after the Covid inspired hiatus, we feel this is a great time to be able to offer our clients a broader range of services with the same dedication to excellent, personal service. It’s a very exciting time for all of us at KDR Talent Solutions. We look forward to supporting clients and candidates as we all collectively rebuild for the future.

Many jobs for a one person. Multitasking?

I figured it was something like that, Mark. LinkedIn doesn’t exactly make those multiple roles easy. Best of luck with the new diversification.
