Hey! I'm Liam.

Football fanatic, tech recruiter by day and apparently now a podcaster?

I work for Cathcart Associates, an independent tech recruitment company in Edinburgh and have been organising two data events, MancML & ScotML for a number of years.

So why a podcast? Because I like listening to Joe Rogan - and thought could I do a podcast for 'work'? Turns out I can ...!

Hope you enjoy - any comments, please do get in touch - but only if you're being nice.
