This, combined with various stints with more hands-on employment on farms across the country have provided a good knowledge basis on our Rural Professionals desk!

Role at MorePeople

Interesting fact about Max...

Bought plane tickets to Japan on a whim after England beat New Zealand in the 2019 Rugby World Cup. Watched the semi-final in the fan zone, before we decided we had to get into the stadium for the final, eventually buying a disappointed Welsh fan’s tickets the morning of the game for an extortionate amount! Best impulsive decision of my life!

    ​I have worked with The Rural Team at MorePeople for over two years now. They are superb recruitment consultants. They provide an excellent service, ensuring they have a thorough understanding of the company and role, as well as ensuring that they only promote candidates that truly meet the role requirements. The process from start to finish is delivered in a very professional and friendly manner and I look forward to continuing to working alongside MorePeople in the future.

    ​Max has been fantastic throughout the process. His knowledge of the industry and his contacts ensured I had the best opportunity to join the Land Agency industry. The pre-interview calls were a huge help as a test run before chatting to employers, this proved invaluable. I would highly recommend Max and MorePeople to anyone looking for a career in the agricultural or rural sector. Thank you for your help and hard work, it has made the process of finding a new job stress-free and enjoyable.

    ​I had never changed jobs before, probably because it seemed like a big scary life change. But with working through MorePeople I felt I wasn’t doing it alone and Max was very patient through the whole process and really went above and beyond to obtain my requirements/ aspirations for my new role.

    I’d never really engaged with headhunters before, but the Rural Professionals team was so personable from the outset and instantly put me at ease. The communication throughout the process was excellent which made what could have been a very daunting experience really enjoyable, and not only did I feel supported through the interview process they have continued to check-in with me since starting my new role. I couldn’t recommend the team at MorePeople highly enough. They really care, which makes them great at what they do!
