2. Facilities Manager: The Facilities Manager role necessitated a candidate with a versatile skill set encompassing operational efficiency, resource optimisation, and stakeholder engagement. We leveraged its extensive network and targeted search methodologies to identify candidates who demonstrated a track record of implementing best practices in facility management. Through a rigorous selection process, a dynamic Facilities Manager was appointed, ready to streamline BGF’s facility operations and enhance workplace productivity.
3. Front of House Supervisor: Recognising the pivotal role of frontline staff in delivering exceptional visitor experiences, we sought a Front of House Supervisor with impeccable interpersonal skills, a keen eye for detail, and a passion for customer service. Leveraging innovative assessment techniques and behavioral profiling, we identified a candidate whose personable demeanor and proactive approach were poised to elevate BGF’s front of house services to new heights of excellence.
I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to the entire Maxwell team for helping me secure this amazing role at BGF.

I have now settled in very well and couldn't be more pleased. I wish you all the greatest success in the future.

Having been on both sides of the recruitment process with Maxwell Stephens in the last few years, I have been totally impressed with Peter and the team. Peter fully took on the brief to find a an FM that not only had the skill set to deliver a high standard of service , but also have a candidate that’s fits in to our culture. The focus in culture fit was the most difficult to identify, its not a qualification, its a quality that comes for life experiences, culture and most importantly attitude. To ask a recruiter to source someone better than me, was not too difficult! All managers should have the attitude to hirer or train staff to be better than themselves, this identifies personal weaknesses, drives quality and productivity. Maxwell Stephens supported BGF to source an FM that more than fitted the brief.
