Brian Fearnett joined BSP to focus on the development of the telecommunications practice.
Brian was a founding Principal of McLean Kerrigan Jackson, a company formed in April 2003 to provide highly personalised executive search and related services for companies seeking senior executives, particularly in the technology field.
Prior to this he was a Director at Alexander Mann/JSP Associates, where his experience within technology sales and marketing enabled him to play a leading role in recruiting some of Australia’s top Information Communications Technology (ICT) company management.
Earlier in his career Brian occupied a number of senior management positions, starting with IBM United Kingdom and later, IBM Australia, thereafter moving to Chase AMP Bank, where he was National Sales Manager (Cash Management Services).
His next career move took him into two of the earliest Australian venture capital-backed technology companies, Eftel and Jtec. At Jtec, a company that became a significant supplier to the telecommunications industry, Brian became National Sales Manager for Australia and progressed to become Country Manager in the United Kingdom.
On returning to Australia in 1996 Brian decided to make full use of his knowledge of senior management employment by entering the executive search and recruitment business, where he has become one of the industry’s most highly regarded practitioners.
A graduate of Harvard College (USA) and with over three decades of working in executive recruitment and the Information Communications Technology (ICT) sectors, Brian has a formidable level of expertise in understanding all of the issues involved in senior level appointments.
Brian is also involved in mountain biking, general fitness and yoga. Other interests include opera, European travel and spending time with his daughter.
