After graduating with an Honours Degree (BA Hons) in History and Politics and a Master’s Degree (MSc) in Global Politics, Adam joined an award-winning Virgin Fast Track 100 Consultancy.

Adam developed a number of relationships up to board level and ultimately increased the organisations' market share, resulting in some of the industry’s most innovative and noteworthy campaigns of the period. An integral part of the growth and success experienced by the business, Adam’s position and remit were expanded to reflect this.

As Founder of Murray McIntosh, Adam felt that there was a gap in the market for a truly ethical and research-led search and selection consultancy. A firm believer in the power of research, Adam ensures that this is an ethos present in all working practices.

Adam sits across our key specialist divisions, supporting client relationships and strategic delivery, in both the UK and US markets. He specialises in advising our clients in all things related to recruitment and human capital and personally delivers search-based assignments.

He can display a strong advisory and delivery track record in our key focus areas, and takes pride in the value he has added to our client and candidate base.
