“I was fortunate enough to be passed details of Maxwell Stephens at the beginning of my career and since then they have been excellent in guiding my career and sourcing roles that offered progression and cultural fit every time. Highly recommend!”

When recruiting for this role we had to ensure that candidates had a minimum of 8 years experience within facilities, and ideally at least 5 years of this would be client side experience. The ideal candidate also needed to have extensive knowledge of building management in a multi-tenanted building including experience of rates, leases and council applications. Ideally this experience would be gained in a similar finance sector or corporate office environment.

In terms of personal attributes, RCM needed a professional with excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a strong work ethic and the ability to motivate others. They would need to be a creative problem solver with the ability to anticipate expectations to ensure smooth running of the office environment.
