Richard Bolton
Richard founded BoltonClarke after a successful 15 year career at a major international search organisation, during which he established himself as one of the leading global headhunters in the Process Control and Automation , Power Generation and Distribution industries.
"I founded BoltonClarke in order to offer something different to the technology marketplace in which we operate. My vision is to provide clients with a more focused partnership driven service, motivated by a combination of successful delivery and trust, without the shackles imposed by larger corporate recruitment structures which often compromise such a targeted approach.. Throughout my recruitment career, I have always found that the best results have been achieved by developing a deep bond of trust and loyalty with clients and as a result I have enjoyed working with some fantastic people, especially in the Process Control and Automation, Power Generation and Distribution fields. I look forward to partnering with BoltonClarke’s clients and providing the high standard of talent acquisition that major organisations need to stay ahead of the competition. I am sure that our commitment to service, professionalism and a high standard of business ethics will make BoltonClarke the recruiter of choice in our core markets."
