Rich has worked brilliantly within the team, handling general admin roles but in particular taking on more complex tasks with ease. He has reviewed our policies, pricing structures and assisted with our annual audit and has made a big impact in the short time he was with us. His detailed approach to the work coupled with a wealth of knowledge, expertise and hard work has been of huge benefit to Heatree. He has a great ability to review and ask the right questions and has been able to move our behind the scenes systems and processes forward quickly to enable us to work more efficiently.

I could not commend anyone to you more highly, both in terms of character as well as ability and work ethic. Rich is a good leader of a team, and is also well able to work with others. He is well able to handle different groups of individuals, and different gift mixes and personalities as he seeks to encourage others to work well together. He leads by example, is unbelievably hard-working and diligent, completely conscientious, honest and trustworthy. His ‘yes’ has always been a ‘yes’ and his ‘no’ a ‘no’. He is thoughtful, considered, highly intelligent, strategic and incredibly good at helping deliver on projects within the framework of a wider vision. He understands loyalty, and has never been anything other than supportive.

Richard is a strong motivator of people who is able to use pastoral skills in difficult situations and keep a professional focus. He has showed commitment, flexibility, hard work and a willingness to learn new skills, working as an excellent team player with a high level of discretion.
