Michael Leyland-Jones
Branch manager & senior recruiter - Locum anaesthetistsFirst joined:
September 2002 - June 2006, rejoined July 2009
Experience:
Mike has always worked in recruitment. Starting in construction, he has also worked in Legal (permanent recruitment) & IT (contract jobs) recruitment. Mike now heads up the team in our Lymington office on the south coast of England. He has over 8 years specialist experience in the recruitment of anaesthetists and has built strong relationships with medical staffing and anaesthetic secretaries all over the country.
Best thing about working in recruitment:
“Talking to a broad range of people, from medical staffing to anaesthetists. Problem solving - working in a fast-paced environment where every day brings a new challenge.”
Top tip for locums:
“To get the most out of the locum process keep your consultant appraised of your availability. This will ensure you are only sent the jobs you want, when you want them”
Outside of work:
“I take full advantage of living in the New Forest and make sure I get out on my mountain or road bike whenever I can. In 2010 I completed the John O' Groats - Lands End bike ride and I often head to the Alps in the summer for down hill biking. I’m also an active committee member of the Lymington Rowing Club, regularly snowboard, and enjoy playing golf and squash.”
