We’re Howie White
The story so far
The business has now completed more than 1500 assignments across a wide range of industry sectors throughout the UK, Europe and further afield including legal, financial and construction.
We don’t have a huge number of clients on our roster, we are not a mass recruiter and have no ambitions to be one. The vast majority of our clients are repeat customers and many have worked with us since day one of the business.
We value relationships. Simple as that.
If you are not fascinated by people then you will never be a success in this industry. This remains the ethos of the business to this day.
Our fascination is with people, not fees.

I would recommend David Taylor at Howie White for any professionals looking to take the next step in their career. His industry knowledge and business connections are invaluable to any candidates who wish to progress
Having utilised the experience of David Taylor at Howie White to identify, search and recruit staff for several of the businesses I have worked for in the last decade, I was intrigued when approached for a new role, to see how David and his team worked from the candidate point of view.
From the provision of the initial brief, I felt that I was provided with more than just a job requirement.
David and his team were, as expected, thorough, professional but also helpful and made the process one that I can recommend to any candidates or recruiters.
Howie White originally contacted me about the opportunity, as although I wasn’t actively looking for a new job, they were aware that I had some experience of a key element of the role. They were in regular contact with me throughout the process, providing feedback and updates so I was always in the picture and answered any questions I had. The role has been everything they said and more, I couldn’t be happier that they made that initial approach.
Our people
Managing Director
David Taylor
David says “Nothing beats meeting people face to face, it has always been an appeal of the industry, to be able to be client facing and getting out and about to meet people. It gives us a much clearer indication of personality and shines a light on how that candidate would fit into the dynamics of the business that an email can’t deliver on. We have less focus on targets and statistics and more focus on understanding businesses and people, doing things right, not compromising and accepting that results will come”.
Consultant
Fred Howie
He has delivered on a large number of assignments across many disciplines. His motivation remains as strong as it was when he entered the industry in 1986 and is based on a fascination with people and what makes them tick.
