Daniel Franklin

He is a seasoned recruitment consultant with over 20 years of experience in the industry. But before he fell into recruitment, there are few things he didn't try: Dan first trained as a chef, later moved on to front-of-house management, and then owned and operated bars, restaurants, and clubs in the UK and Greece. He has also been a club and radio DJ, and has hosted a weekly conspiracy-themed radio show that aired in six countries.

With his multi-faceted hospitality experience, Dan quickly became the sector's go-to recruiter, placing countless professionals into hotels, restaurants, and bars across the UK over two decades. He joined Priority Recruitment in 2020 and initially managed the Hospitality & Healthcare desks before moving on to head the new Priority Tech division, helping to build it into a trusted international recruitment partner.

Dan leads a global team that connects exceptional talent with forward-thinking organisations across digital transformation, technology, infrastructure, cloud, data, and cyber security. He enjoys creating lasting partnerships, helping businesses grow with the right people, and supporting professionals as they progress their careers in an ever-evolving technology landscape.
