Goodman Masson promotes  Andrew Michael to Managing Director 

LONDON, UK – 19th JULY, 2010. Goodman Masson, the largest Independent Financial Recruitment business in the UK, promotes Andrew Michael to Managing Director.

When Andrew joined Goodman Masson his brief was to help create a market leading Finance Recruitment business that became a leading name in the UK.
 

When you look at the growth over the past 15 months in Gross Margin, fee earner headcount and new client wins you start to appreciate that this is exactly what Andrew is creating.
 

Guy Hayward, CEO says of this performance 'I hired Andrew for one reason only. You build from top down and I knew I wanted his abilities in our organisation.  A true leader of people, exceptional at winning and maintaining client relationships, a world class coach and someone who gets things done.'
 

'The big blue chip corporates and financial services community have chosen to partner with us and the best recruiters in the market have joined us.  All because of Andy'.
 

Andy says of his appointment “As you would expect I am absolutely delighted to be appointed Managing Director of Goodman Masson and look forward to this new chapter in my career.  I am equally delighted with the progress we've made within our permanent product over the last 18 months.   Q2 2009 the permanent business was averaging just under £750k gross margin per quarter and this year we witnessed our first ever £2million quarter during the same period.  We have put together a brilliant team that operate together and we are now very focused on our goal of becoming No1 in our space.  To also work with the Board at Goodman Masson and be given the flexibility to invest and grow a business has been a hugely rewarding experience and I look forward to similar growth over the years to come”.
