About Us

Hamilton Lee Recruitment is a specialist consultancy providing tailored solutions to clients in the information market. Founded in 2006, we employ a small professional team and although there have been opportunities to expand, this has been deliberately restricted to ensure we can maintain a personalised service. Our philosophy is to keep to core competencies and not to try and “be all things to all men”, thereby enabling us to deliver unique value to our customers. We work globally with a wide range of enterprise companies and have established an extensive network of contacts. We have developed a reputation for our knowledge, expertise and understanding in this field and believe our key strengths are the specialist nature of our business and the quality of our consultants. We are committed to delivering the highest service levels and devoted to creating long lasting relationships with our clients and candidates.
