Fabian Harris-Brighi

At 14, I started selling pots and pans at the market where I grew up in Italy and quickly realised the two things I enjoyed out of work - people and sales! I got itchy feet when I turned 20 so I packed up my stuff and moved to London for the winter.. 15+ years later and I’m still here!

With over a decade of professional experience, I am currently working as a Finance Recruitment Specialist at COREcruitment Ltd. I particularly specialise in the Hotel, Contract Catering, Retail/FMCG and Leisure industries. 

I aim to connect prestigious clients across the UK with top-tier finance talent, fostering a culture of excellence and integrity that aligns with COREcruitment values. My expertise in the hospitality industry and robust CRM and people management skills allow me to bring a diverse perspective to our team.

Since joining COREcruitment, I have been immersed in managing a broad spectrum of finance roles, from Accounts Assistants through Finance Directors. Leveraging my language proficiencies in English and Italian, I've successfully expanded our reach and fortified relationships with clients and candidates alike. 

What do you do when you are not at work?

Anything active - cycling around London, a good CrossFit sesh, long walks, but always ending with a cold beer and a big meal!

What did you want to be when you were younger?

I had a bit of a passion for football when I was a kid and would have LOVED to become a professional footballer, skills weren’t quite there alas so I had to come up with another plan!

What do you enjoy most?

The first bite of the best pancakes, the first sip of the first espresso early in the morning, the sunrise at 5am when no one else is around, that feeling you get after a cracking workout or that peace you feel after a great yoga class.
