Mike Ward

Director

In Work 

Having originally trained as Structural Engineer & CAD Technician, I opted for a radical career change and have now worked in the digital learning and technology staffing industry for almost two decades. Since Co-founding Instinct, my role has continually evolved – so I’ve gone from building office furniture to being responsible for all commercial aspects of our now 100% Employee-Owned business!

Out of work 

Away from the office, if I’m not spending time with my wonderful wife & two kids, walking Coal – my beloved Labrador, BBQing, skiing, fishing, cooking, in the gym, playing padel, in the pub or on the golf course, you can be sure to find me tending to my near immaculate lawns! (Even if I do say so myself!)

Instinct has been able to provide us with talented individuals who have been instrumental in enabling us to move forward with our programme development. Without them I do not believe we would be where we are now!. I would highly recommend Luke and Instinct to provide the candidates that you need, the turn around times from request to hire is simply amazing
