James Crayston
Recruitment Expert
Hi, I'm James and I am a recruitment expert for the Adults and Children sector within Health & Social Care Jobs. I have recently joined after spending over 3 years recruiting for the Education and Care sector and have recruited for a wide variety of roles within that time.
I like to think that I have banter, although my colleagues may tell you that I am the sort of person that finds myself funny when others don’t... maybe something I need to work on. I am a huge Barrow AFC fan and have been a season ticket now for several years travelling both home & away.
My biggest confession.... losing a bet with a friend and having to get Barrow AFCs awful bluebird tattood on my shoulder which actually looks like a Boeing 747!
Most embarrassing thing I’ve done? It would have to be dislocating my shoulder climbing a tree at Fell Foot with loads of people around and having to get winched down from the tree. I am looking forward to the challenge which Health and Social Care jobs will bring and look forward to working with existing clients but new ones also
