‘I hired Des to head up the finance function at Glue London. I was the non-exec FD of Glue at the time of his hire. He did an outstanding job at Glue firstly migrating all finance systems from its then parent company in-house to Glue and then managed the entire finance function. He has an excellent attitude, upmost integrity and professionalism. I would have no hesitation in recommending him as a finance professional and would be very happy to work with him again should the opportunity arise.’
