About Darren Jayaratne

Darren’s career was panning out as a professional footballer before having to change direction. He then embarked on a period of travel to provide fresh perspectives. Whilst living and working in Australia (and a few other countries over a couple of years), it was here that he decided to study psychology. After gaining his bachelors degree in Psychology, Darren started working in London and then gained an MSc in Occupational Psychology. Whilst working for an HR Consultancy, Darren made a decision to work in the Gulf to explore the region, where his network and experience rapidly developed. Darren worked for the International Distributors of Saville Consulting, Assessment and Development Consultants (a&dc) and Hogan Assessment Systems. Darren returned to the UK and set-up his own company where he works in the Private and Public sectors in the UK and overseas for some of the biggest brands across the world.
