Sitting here on this sunny Saturday morning listening to Lee interviewing potential new superstars who would like to join our property detailing team. All new employees are put on an intensive 3 month in house training course when they join our team. This includes the standard stuff like COSHH, manual handling, working at height, ladder safety, driver awareness, green card CSCS and basic risk assessment adherence. We also train our team on every individual product and tool we use and every eventuality they can be used on (and there are a lot!!) We also train them on different surface types such as timber frame, upvc or even metal frame window fittings, standard windows, sash windows, leaded windows, velux windows, tiled floors, oak floors, LVT floors, laminate floors, and how to work on them depending on if they are treated or not…..The list really is non-exhaustive - and we look to learn new things every day. We call it the Broomsticks academy! We do not employ people with previous cleaning experience on purpose. This is the level of expertise you get when Broomsticks Housekeeping Services Ltd are appointed to “clean” your developments and projects. We are beyond normal, beyond basic and actually, cleaning is only 10% of what we do, the other 90% is property detailing - and this is where we turn your projects from a good finish, to its best finish. We do not let loose any untrained people on our projects, we certainly don’t let them do what they think is best. Our employees learn the Broomsticks way, and only ever deliver it that way and to the award-winning Broomsticks standard. Could this year be the year that you take the leap and elevate your project finish with us? ✨

In the world of hiring for the joinery sector, whether it’s cabinet makers, shopfitters, or joiners there’s a recurring theme that’s impossible to ignore.... loyalty. Loyalty doesn’t come from a lowball offer. A recent conversation with a client hammered this home. They decided to test a candidate’s loyalty by offering a lower pay rate than initially agreed upon until the end of his probation, thinking they could gauge his dedication to the job. This candidate was a trade-qualified worker with six years of post-trade experience and a family to support. Guess what? He walked away. Why? Because loyalty isn’t a one-way street; it’s a mutual investment. When you’re hiring skilled tradespeople, especially those with the experience and expertise to back them up, you’ve got to value them from the start. If your opening offer screams, “I don’t see your worth,” you can’t expect them to stick around. These aren’t just workers—they’re professionals who’ve honed their craft, often juggling responsibilities outside of work, like supporting a family. Many blogs and articles from industry veterans will tell you the same thing: if you want loyalty, show respect and appreciation from the get-go. A fair wage, honest communication, and a clear path for growth aren’t just nice-to-haves; they’re necessities. In this industry, word gets around fast. The best tradespeople know their value, and if you aren’t prepared to acknowledge it, they’ll find someone who will. Hiring in the joinery space is about more than just filling a position—it’s about building a team that’s committed and invested. Loyalty is earned through actions, not assumptions. So, if you’re not willing to meet a skilled tradesperson where they are, don’t be surprised when they keep searching for a better fit. Show value, or let them move on to where they’ll be truly appreciated. After all, it’s not just about hiring someone who can do the job; it’s about hiring someone who wants to stay and grow with you. How are other hiring managers and business owners building loyalty in their teams? Would love to hear your strategies and insights! 👇 #TradeRecruitment #EmployeeLoyalty #JoineryIndustry

It's been a month now since I started working from an office in the Gherkin. Some observations: 1. Suit wearers Lots of people are still wearing suits in the city. I can't work out if people are doing this by choice or if there are still jobs out there that are telling grown ups what they have the wear? 2. Construction is incredible I spend my days working out ways to make an agency proposition sell better. I often think I'm quite clever. But some people are working out how to build skyscrapers and make them not fall over. The press is littered with achievements from the latest tech company. Not sure the construction industry gets enough credit. 3. Trains value I can't think of any single thing that you can buy, that gets you a lower amount of value per £1 than a UK train ticket. £40 for a return to London from Farnham and barely enough room the breathe. 4. Walking value It takes me around 2 hours door to door from my house in Farnham to my desk in the Gherkin. Technically a waste of time when I could just do the same work from home. But there hasn't been a problem I've not been able to solve so far during my walk from Waterloo to the city. 5. Annoying runners getting annoyed People choose to go for a run, during rush hour, on the most congested routes along the river. Then they get very angry when people get in their way. Maybe people like a bit of anger to get them going in the morning. There you go. In case you're wondering what value these observations are meant to add to your day, I've not figured that out yet. Happy Friday!

Great opportunities
