“Magic Mike” is the Chief Marketing Officer at UseVerb, a brilliant new recruitment platform that is revolutionising the way companies recruit and the way candidates submit their job applications.

Mike is also a family man, world traveller and community contributor who has over 20 years experience within the Oil and Gas industry.  Interestingly, after years of pursuing titles and egos, achievements, Michael experienced a profound shift in perspective. He realised that true success lies in IMPACT, purpose, and authenticity.

This epiphany led him to UseVerb, where he found a harmonious alignment of values and vision, a platform emphasising personal interactions like smiles and handshakes, celebrating the human aspect in professional connections.

Today, Michael is a leading figure at UseVerb, championing a people-first approach. UseVerb is not just his workplace; it’s part of a movement towards a more humane, connected professional world.

Mike is also dedicated to the Nations Church Missions Team, where he engages in various initiatives, including Love Community outreach, Sports Chaplaincy, and projects in Cambodia.

"Your word is your word, and your word is your bond." This principle is the cornerstone of Michael's life and leadership, reflecting his commitment to integrity and action.

As Michael embarks on this new chapter with UseVerb, his journey represents not just career progression but personal transformation. It's a story of aligning work with values and serving as a beacon for those aspiring to make a real difference in the world. He is married to Bec for 15 years, sharing life with three children and Coco, the family's beloved dog.
