Jeremy Money – Managing Director

Jeremy MoneyJeremy grew up in Cornwall where he developed a love for the outdoors and nature. This has stayed with him throughout his life. After leaving school Jeremy  spent a  year of travelling and working before going  to University in Bristol where he gained a degree in Urban Development and Planning.

On graduating Jeremy set off on a world trip which he funded by working as a tree surgeon. On return to the UK in 2000 Jeremy was offered a role as a recruiter in the environmental sector. He has  recruited in the environmental, renewables and planning sectors ever since.

In 2004 Jeremy set up JSM Associates in order to deliver the best service possible to his clients and candidates. His personal and individual approach to candidates and clients is what defines JSM and is what forges the long term relationships he now holds within the sector.
