I worked with Gary Windas – Hawksland’s MD in the early stages of his career. It was clear even then that he was a highly motivated, enthusiastic individual with a real thirst for knowledge in the industry. Highly recommended.

Hawksland Associates management skill and expertise was highly appreciated during several attachments. I can recommend their work and in particular their Managing Director – Gary Windas as a person with vast sector knowledge, high integrity and spirit.
