Since joining Ortus in 2008 Nick has successfully developed the temporary, contract and interim management team. The interim team works across commerce & industry and financial & professional services sectors. Nick has built up an excellent candidate and client portfolio offering interim solutions to businesses during times of change including M&A’s, downsizing and growth, as well as maternity and sickness cover. He offers a consultative approach in terms of collaborating with both clients and candidates to define the role and objectives, whilst offering a holistic approach to recruitment.

“Having worked for several years in the interim market and with several interim agencies I am able to speak with confidence that Nick is a great Recruitment Consultant. At every stage he has supported me and stayed in touch throughout my contract. He is very diligent and as an interim, made me feel that I wasn't on my own. I look forward to working with Nick again someday.”

Stephen is a graduate in History and English Literature. Ortus was acquired by the FiveTen Group in January 2008 and he is currently the UK Director. He manages both the interim and permanent divisions whilst retaining a hands-on approach with clients and candidates at senior levels.

“Stephen approached me as a potential candidate for a role he was retained to recruit for. From the very first phone call I found Stephen to be extremely professional in the way he conducted the process - taking time to understand my skills and experience in depth and also explaining his Client's requirements and structure, placing particular emphasis on the areas of common interest. He was always available to answer any questions and took the time to provide full preparation and briefing in advance of each of the interviews that were held with the Client. He was always timely in requesting feedback and helped to close the deal in the most favourable way. Stephen was a pleasure to work with through this process.”
