Meet the Directors
Tom HibberdDirector
Mark LloydDirector
Neil Willis-StovoldDirector
Following a successful recruitment career within the S3 Group, Tom took the decision to fulfil the long term ambition of building a company from inception, and so in 2009 jointly founded Panoramic Associates Ltd. Having experienced significant success and exciting growth within the senior level staffing sector, it was time to launch phase 2 of the plan, the development of a group company to house both Panoramic Associates and the new technical brand, iO.
Tom has an extensive background in the provision of specialist contract, interim and permanent resource into specific industry sectors, and technology based recruitment forms a large proportion of this experience. A visionary & adaptable business leader, well versed in developing mutually beneficial, long term business relationships.
Proven in building and managing teams of recruitment professionals with a core focus on creating exciting career opportunities through the development of individuals at all levels.
Understanding the desired outcome and working tirelessly to deliver this has always been central to Mark’s approach.
This strategy has proven successful throughout his career, whether that’s meant taking the extra time to listen to the aspirations of his clients and candidates, understand the individual motivations of his teams, or develop winning strategies to grow the businesses he’s been involved in.
Having jointly founded the Group in 2009, this successful formula, in conjunction with Mark’s considerable experience, has been a key factor in the Company’s success to date. And with the launch of iO, Mark and the other founders bring with them a unique blend of expertise and knowledge which collectively inspires a great deal of confidence that the business is destined for tremendous success as they continue on their exciting journey.
With 10 years experience in Technology & Digital recruitment, Neil has been heavily involved with all models of resourcing working with on onsite partnerships, Key Accounts, Retained and 360 Models.
Neil previously worked for the S3 Group across multiple offices in the UK and Australia, progressing from Trainee to Management, and then to S3 Group’s Australia Director for the last 4 years.
Driven by a client centric and partnership approach, Neil has a proven track record of developing staff at all levels, establishing and maintaining key client relationships and evolving these relationships into effective, long lasting and successful business partnerships.

Employee Case Studies“It’s fair to say this position and company has now far exceeded my expectations. In just a year and a half, I have now developed and placed with over 20 new organisations within my market, including a significant number of repeat customers. I have also been promoted to Principal Associate, and been given responsibility for helping to train and develop new team members.
I have seen the business consistently grow in numbers, and we have moved into a stunning brand new office. Other highlights have included being taken on some fantastic incentives, including days out of the office to have lunch at 5 star restaurants, and company weekends away including a trip Amsterdam.
From a career development and earnings perspective, taking this position has been a truly life changing experience for me. With the ambitious plans in place, and the passion that the directors and staff have to deliver on these plans, I’m looking forward to a long and successful career with the Group, and I’m certain the best is yet to come!”

Employee Case Studies“I joined Panoramic Associates in 2012 and I can genuinely say that the past few years have been the most rewarding, exciting and challenging years of my life!
From day one, I’ve been provided with incredible training and continuous support, allowing me to develop as a consultant and in turn, experience amazing career progression and unbelievable financial rewards. I’ve progressed from a Graduate Trainee to Senior Consultant level with responsibility for helping to train and develop new team members. I’m now looking forward to developing further on to Manager or even Director Level.
The earnings I have achieved are beyond anything I could have imagined from a first job out of University and I even managed to buy my own house in the second year! I feel very grateful to have been given the opportunity to join Panoramic Associates and I genuinely can’t think of a better company to work for. I’m very much looking forward to continuing my career with Panoramic over the years ahead and can’t wait to enjoy even greater success in the future.”

Employee Case Studies“I joined iO associates almost a year ago and it is safe to say that it was the best decision I have ever made with regards to my working career. I went from a global recruitment company where you are simply a number to an exciting, driven company where you find yourself at the heart of everything.
One of my favourite things about working for iO associates is that the opportunities are genuinely endless here. There is no limit to what you can achieve and that becomes obvious as soon as you step through the door. Everyone is hungry to succeed & to take the group to the next level. There’s a real buzz about the place! That, along with the energy, culture and the expertise you’re surrounded by makes it hands-down the best place I could possibly be working.
My future prospects at iO are incredibly exciting. I know that with hard work, determination and commitment this company can take me to places that I have never dreamed of. The ambition of the directors and the direction of the company means that I am very much looking forward to successfully growing with the organisation and can’t wait for the years ahead here.”
