MICHAEL CROOKS

'both client and candidate needs are very important; bluemonday works hard to understand those needs. My goal is to match the candidate with the right opportunity, nothing less.'

Michael is a recent addition to the bluemonday team specialising in placing Senior and Mid-level IT management.

Michael lived for many years in the United States and previously in Canada. He is a relatively unique character in that he has had an illustrious career in so many areas of Information Technology.

While Michael’s education was in electrical engineering, he started his career in Computer R&D. He has experience with designing, building, installing, troubleshooting, marketing, distributing, selling and managing computer systems and networks. Though he has dabbled in programming and UNIX scripting, he feels that programming was better performed by dedicated Software Engineers.

Start talking with Michael and very quickly you see the breadth of his IT knowledge as he is always working to keep current with technology advances.

In his former life, Michael has held the position of IT Director for a leading photographic manufacturer and subsequently, a leading law-firm, both in New York State. He knows how to manage, assess and upgrade the infrastructure to ensure that all servers, data communications, networks and telephony would be available, secure and compatible with long term company strategy whilst keeping an eye on costs and communicating with upper management.

So, if you are a CIO, CTO, IT Director or IT Manager looking for the next big move in your career, or you are looking to recruit Senior or Mid-level IT staff for your organisation, we suggest a chat with Michael. He knows what it is like to be in your shoes (both as client and candidate) and will be delighted to hear from you.

In keeping with the bluemonday philosophy, all information held by us is highly confidential. We will be open and honest with you at all times, and will do everything we can to help you achieve your goals.
