When asked what attracted him to Conexus, Daniel said:
“Having picked up several awards for its achievements in the recruitment sector, Conexus first caught my eye a year or so ago as a Cardiff-based company with a global market reach. I remember being extremely impressed with how fast it had grown and the impact it was already having within the Digital Transformation and Change industry.
Having met with the Co-Founders Connor and Dale, the Board of Directors, and the rest of the team, I was bowled over by the level of ambition, and the clarity of vision that was already in place. On a personal level, the idea of operating within a company at this early stage of its journey as we look to further expand our Cardiff HQ and Global office footprint is massively appealing”.
Daniel will be working across all areas of the business, further developing a best-in-class recruitment team in order to deliver Conexus’ strategy of providing the information, expertise and talent that shapes the future. Daniel's appointment see's Conexus' Founder and current Managing Director, Connor Wall, move into a Global Managing Director role, where he'll be focusing on international growth and expansion throughout EMEA and the US.
Conexus is part of the Recolution Group which also includes Yolk Recruitment and City Executive Search. Group CEO Dale Williams said of Daniel's appointment:
“As Welsh born founders, when Connor and I first discussed establishing Conexus, we shared a common vision to create a globally recognised digital transformation recruitment business that flourished from the heart of Cardiff. To do this, we had to ensure we built a business that had a competitive advantage by working with first-in-class talent every day. Daniel is the latest addition to the team and brings a wealth and level of experience that will further enhance our core leadership capability in delivering on our ambitions as our new MD. We are delighted to be working with him and to be supporting him as we work together to achieve our goals”.
