Matthew Richardson

Job Role:   Director - London

About me: 

With over 10 years of experience in the staffing industry, I’ve specialised in building long-term partnerships within the Mission Critical space. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to achieve some incredible milestones, including being shortlisted for the Global Recruiter Awards in 2024.

One of my proudest achievements was winning a major client at my previous company, where I helped grow their contractor base from 0 to 75+ within just 18 months. I was also recognised as the Global Top Biller for four consecutive years, which was a huge career highlight.

Now at V7, I’m excited to be leading the growth of our London office, building on the success we’ve seen in Manchester, and working closely with our senior leadership team to continue positioning V7 as the go-to staffing partner in the Mission Critical sector.


What do you enjoy most about working at V7 Recruitment?

I want V7 to be recognised as the leading staffing partner in the Mission Critical space. I’m also thrilled to be spearheading the growth of our new London office, building on the success we’ve already achieved in Manchester. Equally, I’m looking forward to working closely with the other senior leaders at V7 to drive even more success together.
