Why .31.71?

.31.71 was created out of a desire to provide a personal and individual service.

The numbers of the name have a personal significance to the owner, Peter Dushko and were used to reflect his desire to be, and do, something highly individual in recruitment.

Why not ask Peter about the significance when you speak to him?

There are a couple of clues in the design of this site. Can you guess?

We work from within, understanding each and every function, i.e. the skill sets, the problems, the culture and the future direction and opportunity offered within each category.

As a consequence of our informed position within the various sectors, we obtain the majority of our assignments and candidates by referral.

About Peter Dushko

In terms of experience, Peter has built a career in recruitment after 20 successful years in retailing, during which he had service with Makro and J. Sainsbury finally reaching Operations Director, a main board appointment, of a retail subsidiary of Suter Plc.

In over four years in high street recruitment with Humana, Highfield International and Resourcing Solutions Group he carved a niche within Consumer Electronics, both in the Sales and Marketing functions of major manufacturers and in Buying and Merchandising roles within key retailers.

It became apparent in 2000 that the only way to guarantee the service to his clients, the ethics of his chosen style of recruitment and, not least, a steady income was to become an independent recruiter, answerable only to his own conscience (and his bank manager).

The constant search for high calibre individuals has resulted in assignments outside his core market and has resulted in him working closely many different companies and individuals from architects to saddle makers, motorcycle junkies to international yachtsmen.
