We’re delighted to welcome Oliver (Ollie) Timmis to our FM team – his experience and knowledge within property and asset management recruitment position him perfectly as Principal Consultant.

With more than eight years’ experience, Ollie specialises in placing high-calibre technical professionals into the public sector. His focus at IEG will be on local authority and housing association technical appointments, including Building Surveyors, Property Services Managers, Project Managers, and Directors of Property & Asset.

Why Insight?

Ollie first connected with Insight through James Herron, a former colleague he knew and trusted. After a conversation about his next career step, James introduced him to Managing Director Rob Parker, and the rest, as they say, is history.

“Ollie’s experience and sector knowledge make him a perfect fit for this ambitious team” says James Herron, Manager, Public Sector Property, and FM., “I’m excited to see the opportunities he’ll create for our clients and candidates across the network,”

Making an Impact

Ollie is passionate about tackling one of the biggest challenges in his sector: the shortage of high-quality technical candidates. His approach is hands-on and bespoke for every campaign, with a firm belief in meeting every candidate and taking detailed performance references to ensure the right fit for both client and candidate.

He’s also looking forward to expanding his client base nationwide, making the most of hybrid working to connect exceptional talent with opportunities across the UK.

A Warm Welcome

Since joining, Ollie has been impressed by the collaboration and support within the business.

“I’d like to thank everyone for making me feel welcome, and for the referrals – whether that’s consultants introducing me to strong candidates or candidates recommending others they know will be great to work with.”

Outside of Work

Away from recruitment, life is about the simple pleasures. Ollie’s passions include sport, particularly football, keeping fit at the gym, and spending time with family and friends. He’s a proud Aston Villa supporter (UTV!) and an England football and cricket fan.

He’s also the proud owner of a cocker spaniel, Dougie, and says he would happily dedicate precious time to convincing anyone considering one to take the plunge into dog parenthood.

Welcome to the team, Ollie – we’re excited to have you on board.
