PageGroup, the global specialist recruitment company, has announced that Jonathan Wiles will be transferring to the position of Managing Director of Page Executive from his current role as Managing Director of Michael Page Human Resources.

Page Executive recruits ‘C’ Suite executives across all key disciplines and market sectors through providing a flexible and highly robust approach to executive search.

Mr Wiles joined the company in 1992 as a consultant in Michael Page Marketing and was promoted to Operating Director in 2000 and then Regional Director in 2004. After years of strong performance, Mr Wiles transferred to Australia and was promoted to Managing Director in 2008, responsible for five businesses. Since returning to the UK in 2010, Mr Wiles has run Michael Page’s Human Resources business.

Oliver Watson, UK Managing Director commented: “Page Executive represents a major opportunity for PageGroup in the UK, and the time is right for this brand to be led by a single individual. I know that Jonathan’s ability to lead this business from the front, to develop great business relationships, both internally and externally, and to channel our resources into the right markets will ensure that Page Executive develops quickly.”
