Luke Van Oudtshoorn
Recruitment Consultant - Events and Hospitality Recruitment
Luke joined the Profiles team after getting the taste for hospitality while working at events including Goodwood Festival of Speed, Farnborough Air Show and Henley Regatta after originally planning a career in Aeronautical Engineering.
Suddenly being part of a small design team behind the scenes in the big engineering world lost its appeal and Luke decided to take the plunge and join the exciting wold of highly acclaimed international events.
Remaining calm under pressure and tackling each task with engineering precision, Luke is establishing a solid working relationship with clients.
His South African roots and a traditional British education have given him leadership qualities which already culminated in his sporting achievements – by becoming East Hampshire Sportsman of the Year and representing GB in Triathlon.
