John Lawson studied Biotechnology and Bioprocess engineering at Massey University working in the dairy, food and beverage industries before joining the recruitment industry and establishing Lawson Williams in 1992.  This year the business celebrates its 30th anniversary and has a reputation for providing quality recruitment services to New Zealand businesses.

Lawson Williams quickly developed a reputation for technology and manufacturing related recruitment. We now specialise in recruitment in 5 verticals.

John remains actively involved in the business, working in recruitment and developing client relationships.

In 2015 he led the development of Lawson Executive, an executive search business that identifies and attracts current and future leaders for our clients.

Lawson Williams continues to develop and grow. An important part of this is to ensure it continues to deliver the experience and knowledge that it is recognised for, while building a team to take the business forward into the future.
