Kyran is a Director at TLG with over ten years of experience in recruitment within the building services and construction sectors. I specialise in delivering practical, effective hiring solutions for clients across the UK and Europe.

My role focuses on client strategy, commercial responsibility, and day-to-day operational leadership. I work closely with clients to understand their workforce needs across operations, commercial functions, design, and labour, helping them build the right teams to deliver successful projects.

Prior to my current position, I held senior leadership roles within established recruitment businesses, including responsibility for the day-to-day management of a Building Services division. In these roles, I led client engagement strategies, attended senior operational meetings, and maintained full commercial accountability while managing key accounts across multiple regions in the UK & Europe.

I have worked with a wide range of organisations, from specialist SME’s to multinational blue-chip companies, and have supported recruitment on many high-profile developments. I am known for my straightforward approach, strong market knowledge, and focus on building long-term working relationships based on trust and results.
