Daniel Newlands
Founder and CEO
I started my recruitment career in 2013 after returning from Queensland where I played rugby professionally. I worked my way up at well-regarded finance and accountancy recruiter in London. I built long lasting relationships with the likes of Coca Cola and other big names. From that point, I went on to work for some amazing CEO's and learnt an abundance of skills and built my industry knowledge.
I have developed a solid network over the past 8 years in finance and transformation recruitment. Helping people and building new relationships are my main components, therefore recruitment came naturally to me. I intend to make Dara a globally recognised group offering talent solutions across various disciplines. My area of expertise is Finance and Transformation recruitment, this will be my core focus for the next 2 years until we expand into other areas.
If I did not work in recruitment, I would be still involved in rugby in some capacity. For me, rugby holds such a powerful concept which I deploy in working life - Team work and planning is essential. I go above and beyond for my candidates and clients - I see their needs and requirements as my target. Through passion I ensure I hit these targets by leaving no stone unturned.
