Allen provided exemplary leadership and continuity to my management team and the wider organisation during his part time interim tenure (10 months) as HR Director following the departure of the previous postholder. He rapidly established confidence through his open nature, measured approach, sound judgement, and consistent professionalism. His ability to offer strategic insight while maintaining robust operational oversight ensured that key HR priorities progressed without interruption. Allen provided clear communication, balanced decision‑making, and constructive engagement with senior leaders and staff alike which have been instrumental in sustaining organisational stability. His contribution during this transitional period has been of significant value and has strengthened the effectiveness of our HR function here at Miltenyi in the UK and Ireland.

I have had the privilege of working with Allen twice, he is that good!
On the first occasion, a business of some 200 FTE and five sites, Allen was instrumental in helping the SLT settle and direct a business that had experienced massive upheaval and no direction for a number of years.
On the second occasion, I reached out for Allen as I knew he would be fantastic in the setting of an international business totally lacking in people management skills. He remotivated the management team and team members with his people centric methodology, and his acute sense of professionalism and commercial reality.
Allen is not only a fantastic people management practitioner, but a fantastic human also. I would gladly work with Allen again tomorrow, in fact I would look forward to it.

I highly recommend this company. Allen has a strong background in HR from the very large corporates to smaller start-ups.
