I was extremely fortunate to collaborate with Lewis in the second half of 2021. Lewis reached out as he noticed I had a mixture of smart building and fintech/data management experience. Working on behalf of a client, he was looking to fill a role responsible for driving innovation in the smart building space. I was impressed Martin could speak to my strengths with the client and discuss how my skills would compliment the team. He convinced the client I was the right person for the role. While I wasn’t looking for a new role at the time, he clearly articulated the clients objectives in a way that also sparked excitement with me. Throughout the process, he worked closely to build the relationship and role so everyone was excited to move forward. While I’ve worked with talent acquisition professionals before, I’ve never worked with anyone more passionate and thorough as Lewis.

Lewis was an absolute pleasure to work with. Too many talent recruiters are singularly focused on putting warm bodies in seats, valuing only quantities without any concern for quality. Lewis' performance was a wonderful exception to that standard. His primary goal for me was to convey and foster as much communication and information exchange as possible between me and his client employer, to firmly establish whether or not I would fit in perfectly. Luckily for all parties involved, the fit was perfect and I'll be starting my new position in a few short weeks. I can't recommend Lewis enough, and I hope to partner with him in the future to build out my new team.

We had a very niche role to fill, and Lewis was very attentive in listening to what we were looking for. He did all the screener interviews and presented us with a couple candidates. Although we were also actively recruiting and interviewing through LinkedIn, he ended up finding the right person for us! We will continue to work with him again.

Lewis helped fill a position for me that I've been trying to fill for quite some time now. He was very knowledgeable in our industry and provided me with quality candidates to speak with. I liked the fact that he took the time to hear what qualities I was looking for in the ideal candidate and made it a point to find someone who fit those criteria. It's been almost two months since we've hired the candidate and he has worked out well so far. I will continue to work with Lewis to fill other positions on my team. I highly recommend anyone to work with Lewis for your hiring needs.

For the past 12 months Lewis was persistent to say the least working on my behalf as a smart building's recruiter. He scheduled numerous interviews, follow up sessions, and always endeavored to keep me in the loop. His smart buildings (IoT) knowledge base is second to none. A terrific recruiter, and all-around decent individual. Thank you for all your hard work, Brian.
