Samantha Kearney

Associate Director

I'm Sammy (Samantha) and I'm an Associate Director, based in our Harvey Nash Manchester offices. 

I head up our recruitment delivery, and a team of consultants with expertise across the end-to-end technology landscape in the Northwest, from both a contract and permanent perspective covering all areas from retained CIO appointments through to junior infrastructure support specialists and everything in between. I also manage a number of the relationships with our key accounts; and still recruit across Architecture.

Outside of work I love to socialise with friends; going to new places to eat and drink! I also really enjoy going to the gym regularly to balance out the eating and drinking!

The best piece of advice I've ever been given is, "Opportunities don't happen, you create them!"
