Chris Mellor
Director & Principal Recruiter - Commercial
Just a loveable guy who loves being a dad & the best husband ever! I am a huge CrossFit fan – I love good food and a good old thriller movie! I’m a competitive person, an absolute sports fanatic (which you’ve probably guessed) and I love a challenge. I’ve done a lot of sport-related charity work too!
When did you start playing games?
I started playing games when I was in my teens. Before that I was out playing tiggy, curby and love a good hedge hop. I love playing them now because I have to! I work in the industry so I kind of need to know what I am talking about.
What's your favourite game series?
Uncharted
What's your career background?
I was a footballer at YTS level but when I was released from my contract, I decided to go into the fitness industry and become a personal trainer. I built my own clothing business alongside this and due to the success of this I knew I was a people person, so I decided to dive in to something completely different. I applied to a vacancy with Aardvark Swift and 8 years later I now own part of the business!
