Shaun Connor — Co-Founder

✔ Do you want to work with an agency partner who you can help map out your career aspirations both short, medium and long term? ✔ Do you believe in working in partnership, building long lasting relationships to help grow your business? ✔ Do you want to work with a partner, who can build communities and help structure your talent management function from the ground up to create high performing teams? I am one of the Co-Founders and directors at Amicus Recruitment. We partner with some of the world’s leading data-center owners, delivery companies, and infrastructure providers. We take pride in delivering specialist contract and permanent recruitment solutions exactly when they’re needed most. I find technology fascinating, enjoying how how it constantly evolves and develops. What better to combine this with two things I enjoy equally as much, communication and helping / advising others. That is the reason I love going to work each day, continuing to strive for improvement across the recruitment industry as a whole. I am a massive believer of ongoing personal development, so a passion of mine is to build communities, where you being in the Data Center ecosystem can share personal experiences, positive and negative to help others achieve their career goals. One huge passion of mine, is to become a true partner with you; whether that is in helping scale your business, promoting diversity and inclusion, building your talent management function as a whole or assisting in growing and developing your most important asset, your people. When I’m not working, which doesn’t tend to be often these days, you’ll find me at Old Trafford as I’m an avid Manchester United fan. I’ve played football since an early age up to a non-league level for many years, unfortunately two bad cruciate ligament injuries have forced me to take a back seat from the playing side. I also enjoy travelling, visiting places such as Bali, Cambodia, South America and many other countries in recent years whilst spending time socialising with friends and family.
