Meet The Team
Paul begun his professional journey by pursuing horticulture at the prestigious Capel Manor college in Middlesex. He quickly realised that whilst he had a keen eye for detail and a love of nurturing growth – the UK winters were far too cold for him, so he downed tools and changed careers – to HR and human development.
His skills in cultivating and being hands-on made him an instant success in the field, helped further by his personable, friendly manner. After 4 years as a Recruitment consultant, including a secondment in the Netherlands for a specialist FIFA project, Paul joined First Security (Guards) in 2000. Here Paul spent another 4 years, supporting recruitment, staffing and security contracts for clients such as Barclays Capital and Sotheby’s.
After studying for his CIPD in 2004, Paul’s success continued, undertaking roles at Hays Montrose, Alpha Plus Security Limited and as HR Director of The Security Group Limited. In 2015, Paul was awarded the Freedom of the City of London, for his 20 years of championed recruitment training and apprenticeship initiatives. Paul decided it was time to take his wealth of experience and set up his own HR consultancy, PBHRC Limited, specialising in HR, recruitment, employment legislation, performance management and TUPE, to name a few. An instant success, he rebranded the company in 2021, to become Bradley & Co.
