Will Patterson.
Hi, I'm Will, a Talent Acquisition Partner with 9 years experience building teams across EMEA, Manila & the US. I've worked in complex public sector, start up & scale up organisations. I pair & optimise AI driven workflows with a core focus on human first candidate journey.
I'm passionate about hiring the best talent all while creating exceptional candidate experiences — because behind every application is a person making a life changing decision.
Hiring is about more than filling positions — it's about ensuring every step of the journey is real, human focused, meaningful, & memorable.
