About Barry

Phone verified

Graduated from Rhodes University with a Bachelor of Social Science, and Honours in Organisational Psychology. Passion lies with all aspects around HR, with the main focuses having been on Talent Acquisition and Project Management. DAV Professional Placement Group signed me up after leaving varsity, as a Specialist Consultant within the ICT Division. Just shy of two years with them, Chartall Business College came knocking with an opportunity as a Project Manager. I remained there for over two years, working on the BankSETA projects with the likes of FNB, Nedbank and Al Baraka. May 2015, saw me join Medrock Group as the Group Talent Officer, conducting all the company's subsidiaries' recruitment and selection needs, along with various HR related duties. Also drew up the group's recruitment & policy. Several months later, Dis-Chem acquired Medrock Group, and I was part of package that moved across. Lead the recruitment division (and also reinvented their recruitment & selection policy). Was then headhunted by Gateway Capital Placements, where I've been since as the Division Head of Placements (effectively a one-man all-round recruitment machine). However, the director opted to have education as his primary focus, and retrenched staff from two business units – and I was subsequently affected. That brought me to the fore with Nolands Recruitment. Nolands Auditors were a client of mine, and their Advisory division wanted to open a placements company – that’s where I came in. While I’ve been there since October 2018, I’ve managed to place 45 candidates and have others at offer stage.
