He is Board Advisor to Impact start-up accelerator: Unrest. He is a proud father to his 2 daughters, Iris and Cleo.
We had an excellent experience working with Charlie and the team at Harmonic. Charlie took the time to properly understand our business - how we work, what drives our culture, and the dynamics within the leadership team. He represented both us and the candidates with care and good judgement, facilitating clear and open communication throughout the process. He also challenged our original brief, helping us think beyond the criteria we’d set. By understanding what we actually needed rather than what we’d written down, he introduced candidates who were a better fit than our initial profile. We ultimately hired one of those candidates. It’s been an outstanding addition to the business. We’d gladly work with Charlie and Harmonic again and recommend them without hesitation.Tommy Rickett CEO/Founder, BeZero Carbon
I had the pleasure of working with Harmonic to fill a challenging role for an Operations Director. Harmonic were absolutely brilliant throughout the entire process. They listened carefully to the brief and truly understood our needs. Their ability to find a great shortlist of candidates was impressive, and they ultimately helped us secure the perfect fit for the role. I highly recommend Harmonic for their professionalism, dedication, and exceptional recruiting skills.Blake Richmond Chief Operating Officer, Resonate
We took a leap of faith in selecting Harmonic for the roles we were searching for as we hadn’t worked with them before and were considering using one of the big international search firms. However, we have been very impressed with their work. Not only do they understand the Finance function and market exceptionally well, their values aligned strongly with ours, making working with them very, very easy. We have subsequently worked with Harmonic on another role and would work with them again on any future roles we have.Peter O'Sullivan CEO, Penspen (DAR Group)
The team at Harmonic were brilliant, I needed a CFO for a scaling start up, and quickly. They were patient, listened to the company’s needs and turned the role around very quickly. The service was great, and I would highly recommend.Rob Fowler CEO, Volta Trucks
