JAMES BURNS

Research & Data Executive

James joined Arthur Edward from retail, where he quickly progressed to managing a large team across multiple functions and departments. The aspect he most enjoyed was building relationships and resolving issues with both staff and customers, making him the perfect fit for his role here at Arthur Edward.

Taking his career in a new direction, James finds recruitment and Arthur Edward’s tight-knit team an appealing contrast to his work in retail. The opportunity to help tackle the stigma around males within the beauty industry further attracts him; with his interest in a variety of music genres and artists, such as Machine Gun Kelly, Lil Yachty and Harry Styles breaking that barrier.

Away from work, James’ love of music plays a large part of his personal life. He produces music and attempts to learn instruments to help expand his knowledge. He loves American Football and basketball, and finds joy in going to the gym and bettering himself as a person.
