Our defence Team

Kieran Slaughter

Managing Consultant

As a Managing Consultant in Mane's Defence team, I bring a unique blend of industry knowledge and a passion for connecting talent with opportunity. My extensive understanding of the defence sector, coupled with my experience, allows me to appreciate the intricacies and demands of this dynamic industry. I specialise in identifying highly skilled candidates and matching them with positions that not only meet their technical qualifications but also align with their career aspirations.

My approach to recruitment is both strategic and personal. I believe in simplifying the talent search process for both clients and candidates, especially in an unpredictable world. By leveraging my deep industry insights and network, I strive to make meaningful connections that propel careers and drive organisational success in the defence sector. My goal is to be more than just a recruiter; I aim to be a trusted advisor who can guide professionals through their next career move with confidence and clarity.

Interestingly, my background as a former trampoline coach has instilled in me a unique perspective on 'launching' people towards their goals. This experience has enhanced my ability to recognise potential, nurture talent, and provide the right momentum for candidates to reach new heights in their careers. In the complex and ever-evolving defence industry, I am committed to providing a personalised service that addresses the specific needs of both clients and candidates, ensuring that each placement is not just a job match, but a strategic step towards long-term success.
