A true person u can count on

Ben is an outstanding recruiter for positions within the Security field, amongst others devoted to high quality and demanding fields. I would highly recommend his recruitment services. Ben has remained an invaluable link into the hiring practices and trends within multiple security industries. He maintains an outstanding portfolio of security professionals. He listens to an organization's needs and goes beyond the call to fulfill not just what the organization thought they needed now, but with an eye for their future. I would highly recommend Ben to any organization seeking true talent in the IT Security industry.

Ben is someone of high integrity. He always kept his word and had honest, frank conversations with me about any business situation we navigated together. He's someone I trust with sharp business acumen and I would recommend him to anyone seeking such qualities and abilities. Highly recommended.

As the company's chief financial executive I worked with Ben for several years and was impressed with his ability to manage challenging priorities and goals. Just keeping all the moving parts of a fast growing operation under control was a feat, but he did this while simultaneously developing a successful sales team and managing a front and back office system integration. He handles his leadership role with integrity, consistency and professionalism and it was both a pleasure and a privilege to work with Ben. He has an intuitive grasp of business finance and his command of both the sales imperatives and the financial implications of running a a $20M+ operation gives him a formidable tool kit for building success which he is able to deploy strategically.

Ben and I go way back as professionals and colleagues. We first worked together when I was with BECU (2003). He's been my go-to partner on both ends of the recruitment spectrum. When I needed to hire the right consultants to match my current technical environment and culture, he was there listening and delivering first-rate results. Ben also advised me on my career moves. He's insightful and knowledgeable of the marketplace and the nuances of business needs. I trust Ben because his vision scales from operational to strategic – connects the dots between big picture and action. Ben is an absolute role model of leadership. His business savvy in recruiting is top-tier!

Ben recruited me as a consultant to Axtria and went above and beyond to help me a) understand the position, b) negotiate a number of hurdles that came up both during and after the recruitment period and c) understand Axtria's culture so that I could thrive there. In my experience, most "talent acquisition" folks limit themselves to the "talent acquisition" part. They find a good hire, walk them through the hiring process and then they then move on to the next fish in the sea. Ben has remained an important support structure through the entire onboarding process and never gave me the impression that he was done once the "sale" was finalized. This type of dedication and approach goes a very long way towards making a great first impression on the recruit and is not something that should be taken for granted. Ben excels in what he does and it truly makes a huge difference.
