Meet the leadership team

Pete Mills
Director

I am a Finance Recruitment Consultant by trade, operating in the Accounting/Commercial space and based in Reading, I spend my life meeting and talking to Accountants at all levels across all disciplines, and believe it or not, I never get bored. 

I set up Apointe in May 2019 as I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my working life doing Recruitment, so it made sense to do it how I think is right. 

Outside of my day to day recruiting job, I spend most of my time with my two boys, Henry and Max, and obviously my wife and also Apointe employee Sam. 

Family aside I love golf, cooking outdoors, all things wine and laughing at my own jokes.

Mckensy Gardner Recruiting Lead

From across the pond in 2018, I dove headfirst into the thrilling world of recruitment upon landing in the UK. Kicking off my adventure in the vibrant realm of customer service recruitment, I quickly honed my skills in identifying top-tier candidates and fostering meaningful client relationships.          

Fast forward to today, and I’m navigating the twists and turns of finance recruitment, adding a sprinkle of excitement to number crunching. Thanks to my recruitment guru, Pete, I’m soaking up wisdom like a sponge and making waves in this ever-changing sea of talent.

Filled with a strong sense of dedication, I aim to bring a fresh perspective to the traditional recruitment process, focusing on effectiveness and results. Learning the ropes while keeping things fun, I’m on a mission to find the perfect harmony between clients and candidates. So, let’s make some recruitment magic happen!

Samantha Mills
Sales Support

I am the Lead Admin/Sales Support for Apointe, essentially I keep Pete and Neil out of trouble! I have been here for a number of years and I absolutely love my job!

My role at Apointe is to make sure everything behind the scenes is running efficiently as possible and to make sure our candidates and clients are compliant. You will more than likely hear from me if you are involved with us in any form of the recruitment process, if you ever have any questions please feel free to get in touch. I am fortunate I work for a business that let’s me operate in a flexible and time efficient way, so It may sometimes take me a day to get back to you.
