Stan Watson — Finding the Right People, Changing Futures

I’ve spent over 25 years in the Automotive and Retail world, from the workshop floor to the boardroom of a national garage business. I’m a proud Fellow of the IMI and love being involved in the wider automotive community — but what really drives me is people.

For me, recruitment isn’t about CVs and job titles — it’s about understanding who someone really is, what makes them tick, and where they can shine. I get to know the businesses I work with inside out, so I can find the kind of people who don’t just do the job, but bring energy, ideas, and long-term value.

Whether it’s helping a startup make its first hire or finding the next big player for a well-established team, I put my heart into making the right match.

What you’ll get from me:

• Personal attention – I take the time to listen, properly

• Industry know-how – 25+ years connections and insight in Automotive and Retail

• A talent magnet – I can relate to everyone from experienced leaders to Gen Z go-getters

• Proven results – People I place tend to stick, grow, and make a difference

Outside of work, I’m a proud dad raising two teenage boys and an adult daughter. My mission at home is the same as in my career — to inspire them to be the best version of themselves, to chase big goals, and to never stop learning. For me, recruitment is more than business. It’s about building futures — for companies, for candidates, and for the people I care about most.

David Stow – a people person with a passion for connecting the right talent with the right opportunities. After years of working closely with skilled professionals in the motor industry, I decided to take the leap and launch my own recruitment company.

As Managing Director, I’ve built the business from the ground up into a highly profitable, well-respected recruitment brand. Over the past five years, the company has achieved a combined seven-figure gross profit, driven by strong client relationships, repeat business, and a reputation for delivering results that go beyond expectations. My role spans strategic growth planning, team leadership, and hands-on involvement in securing the best possible matches for both employers and candidates.

Outside of work, I’m a dedicated bodybuilder and fitness enthusiast – which means I know all about commitment, discipline, and pushing for results. I bring that same energy and drive into my business every single day.

Whether you’re looking for your next career move or the perfect person to join your team, I’m here to help make it happen – with honesty, warmth, and a genuine desire to see people succeed.
