About Declan

After training 25+ hours per week in elite gymnastics from the age of 8, I transitioned into 10m platform diving at the ripe age of 22. A pivotal decision in my sporting career which heavily involved getting out of my comfort zone and putting my career on the line. Thankfully, after plenty of hard work and a great team around me, I was competing Internationally after 11 months in the sport. I continued to win medals at major events such as 2018 Commonwealth Games, 2018 World cup and 2x 2019 World Series events before the Covid-19 pandemic halted my Olympic goal due to circumstances beyond my control.

 

My lifetime of high-performance in sport has now transitioned into the business world where I have found a home here at West recruitment which incorporates my values for hard work, discipline and a love for people. 

Outside of work I am a man of faith and family with two young children.  I am a big sports fan and enjoy following Rugby League in winter (Dragons!) and Cricket in summer. I love a competitive game of touch footy, table tennis, cards and snowboarding while enjoying as much time with family and friends as possible.
