Hello!
Now with 25 years of recruitment experience I launched MacGregor Recruitment in July 2021 in order to deliver a quality and consultative recruitment experience for clients and candidates within the fenestration sector.
Bit more of background on me - my recruitment career started with Randstad in 1999 managing large temporary contracts for companies like Walkers Crisps and various Leicester City Council contracts, and then I made the move into in-house recruitment in 2005.
As a HR based internal Recruitment Manager I set up and ran internal recruitment functions for a number of companies that included Eurocell Plc and Stevenswood / Customade Group, which gave me fantastic hands on fenestration recruitment experience across profile extrusion, fabrication and window supply trade counter operations.
Working in these businesses with a focus on quality of hire rather than as an agency recruiter with high sales calls, CVs sent and Interviews arranged targets really developed me as a recruiter. I gained a true appreciation of attracting, selecting and hiring the right person and first hand exposure to the difference a good or bad hire can make to a company. This is probably my biggest USP compared to some other agencies.
I am committed to ‘doing things the right way’ and to be a comfortable partner with you. I've a 'down to earth', non-salesy personal style, committed to finding the client the right person, and to help the candidate get the right role with the right business for them. I'm not a Wolf of Wall Street wannabe recruiter.
Out of work I'm based near Nottingham with 2 grown up children working and living in Manchester, and 2 grown up step children locally. Kept on my toes by Eddie my Springer Spaniel and Piper a Cocker Spaniel X, and get out on my motorbike whenever possible! Working towards my long term goal of relocating to a highland croft (with good wifi!) at some point before I get too old and decrepit.. :-)
