February 2025

28 Feb

February was an busy month at Oakstone International as we continued to grow and strengthen our team. We welcomed Michael Barnes and Andy Sellers, who bring valuable expertise to our business. Alongside our internal growth, we partnered with several new SaaS companies, helping them secure top talent to drive their success.

Welcome to the Team

This month, we welcome two new members to the Oakstone team.

Andy Sellers

With a wealth of experience in recruitment, Andy brings deep industry knowledge, a proven track record in executive search, and a passion for helping businesses build world-class teams.

Outside of work, Andy spends most of his time trying to keep his 3 children entertained. When the opportunity arises, he’s also a frustratingly inconsistent golfer and tennis player. Working on the coast does mean he has no more excuses not to take up paddle boarding this summer.

Michael Barnes

Oakstone is delighted to welcome Michael Barnes to the team!

Michael is rejoining the Oakstone team after 25 years in the SaaS industry. Michael brings a wealth of industry experience, having worked at Adobe, Dell, Informatica, Fortrus and Celebrus.

The roles we have delivered this month include the following:
