Tim Simpson

My Speciality

As a Consultant within Leadenhall’s Advisory Consulting team, I connect top talent with leading firms across Strategy and Operations Consulting, Public Relations, Strategic Communications, Political Risk & Advisory, and the Energy sector. I recruit for roles from Consultant to Partner level, primarily within the UK and US, with a growing reach across APAC. I’m dedicated to understanding the unique needs of both clients and candidates to facilitate impactful placements in these dynamic markets.

Why I chose Leadenhall

Coming from South Africa, the opportunity to work at a company in the dynamic hub of London was a significant draw. I was particularly attracted to Leadenhall’s smaller company environment, where I knew I’d have the chance to gain a wider range of experience and learn more rapidly. The recruitment industry itself offers numerous benefits, including the chance to build strong relationships with both clients and candidates, to play a key role in facilitating career growth, and to develop a deep understanding of the consulting market.

Career History

Following my Bachelor of Commerce degree with a major in Logistics and Supply Chain from Stellenbosch University, I gained diverse experiences through a brief period in the US and then in sales at my family’s car dealership in Cape Town. This journey has now led me to the vibrant London market and my role at Leadenhall Search.

Outside of Work

Outside of work, I enjoy an active social life with friends and family around London. I’m also a keen sports enthusiast, both as a spectator and participant, striving to maintain an active lifestyle.
