FROM ACCOUNTS ASSISTANT TO RECRUITMENT DIRECTOR
Martyn’s route into recruitment started unexpectedly while working as a temporary Accounts Assistant.
Every Friday, he would hand in his timesheet at the recruitment agency office and quickly became drawn to the energy, pace, and people-focused nature of the environment. It was clear to him early on that recruitment combined everything he enjoyed: hard work, relationship building, problem solving, and helping people.
Fast forward more than 20 years, and Martyn is now co-founder of Talent Locker and continues to do what he enjoys most, connecting great people with great businesses.
OUTSIDE OF RECRUITMENT
Outside of work, Martyn is all about family, football, gym sessions, BBQs, parties, and spending time with friends.
He is also:
-
A huge Tottenham Hotspur supporter
-
A self-confessed Costco superfan known internally for encouraging colleagues to sign up for memberships
-
The owner of a very lovable and extremely soppy black Labrador
Fun fact: Martyn was also Hampshire Triple Jump Champion for two consecutive years.
When it comes to drinks, you will usually find him with either a cold Peroni or a spiced rum in hand.

Martyn contacted me inquiring about my current role and if i was interested in a new role that would mean a new career path. He helped me secure my current job in a seamless and efficient process over only a fortnight.
Martyn has a calm and very professional approach that gets results. He is highly respected by both candidates and clients alike and has a deep understanding of the needs of both. I would not hesitate to contact Martyn if I ever needed to as a client or candidate.
Having worked with Martyn over the last 6 years or more I am always very confident that his professionalism, attention to detail and understanding of requirements is why he is able to deliver with a great deal of success. I would highly recommend Martyn for any future resource requirements anyone may have.
Martyn has a very swift and professional manner in doing his job. I received job offer for my application in an amazing short time. This could not be done without thorough understanding of client’s requirements, expertise of scanning candidate’s profile, sound industry knowledge and good relationship with his clients.
He was fantastic to work with. Martyn is one of the most valuable people I have ever dealt with.
Martyn helped tailor my CV for every opportunity. He even went so far as to give me coaching on interview techniques, and was happy to speak to me out of normal working hours before late interviews. I found Martyn very proactive and never had to chase for updates. The team continued to support me right through to my first day on the job - would highly recommend!
