Colin McKay

Travel Junkie With An Eye For Detail

Originally from Inverness, Colin studied law at the University of Aberdeen after abandoning his childhood aspirations of being a professional footballer.

He embarked on his career with us back in 2005 as a trainee consultant in the Accountancy & Finance specialism. After moving on to pastures new in 2007, he has now come full circle, returning to TMM Recruitment in April 2021 to focus on our IT specialism.

In the meantime, Colin gained a broad range of recruitment experience in a variety of sectors, including financial services and healthcare, as well as forays into teaching and the travel industry.

A passion for travel – he's visited over 50 countries – has led Colin to some far-flung locations, settling at various times in Australia, New Zealand, Japan and Glasgow!
