Liam is a seasoned recruitment professional with over a decade of experience in the industry. Having climbed the ranks through hard work and determination, he has found his niche in the construction and construction-related sectors. Although the early years of his career were challenging, as he focused on building a robust client base, his persistence has paid off, and he now thrives in a career he truly enjoys.
Liam joined GCS Associates as a natural step in his career progression. The opportunity to take on a long-term recruitment project where he could make a significant impact was too good to pass up. The role offered not only professional growth but also the chance to spend more quality time with his family, thanks to the flexibility it provided. Initially working onsite as an Internal Recruitment Manager for one of GCS’s RPO clients, Beesley & Fildes, Liam successfully managed their recruitment needs, completing the project in half the allotted time. He has since returned in-house, where he now works with multiple clients, delivering outstanding results and thoroughly enjoying his role.
Liam prides himself on his honest and upfront approach, building trust with both stakeholders and candidates by setting realistic expectations. He believes a little generosity goes a long way too—biscuits and donuts often make an appearance during meetings!
Currently, Liam is juggling multiple national recruitment projects, placing senior branch managers, area directors, and business development professionals across the UK. His workload is diverse, but he relishes the fast-paced nature of the job, ensuring there’s never a dull moment.
Outside of work, Liam is a devoted family man, spending much of his time with his two young children. His seven-year-old son has recently started playing football for a local team in Liverpool, which keeps Liam busy as a weekend chauffeur. Originally from Ireland, Liam is a proud Cliftonville supporter and a football enthusiast. He still plays 11-a-side football, managing the occasional spectacular goal, and enjoys the camaraderie of the game. When he’s not on the pitch, Liam appreciates the occasional pint of stout, keeping a connection to his Irish roots.
