Meet The Team: Adam Hewitt, Recruitment Consultant
Tell us about your career so far?
After leaving University in Leeds I didn’t really have a plan. I studied Sport and Business Management then worked in an estate agent for a couple of years before spending a year travelling the world – which I’d recommend to everyone!
I then had the opportunity to join GCS where I have now worked for 5 years. I haven’t looked back, I love working within the recruitment industry and especially like working with the people within our specialist sectors across construction and merchants.
Why did you join GCS
I was looking for a new role and I was put in touch with Mike Parry, Managing Director at GCS. He sold me the dream of working in recruitment and helping find people new jobs! I was keen for a new challenge and after learning more about recruitment I realised there would never be a dull day.
After speaking with Mike I knew that GCS would be the right place for me to develop and be part of a growing business.
What are your main responsibilities at GCS?
Over the years my role has changed. Originally, my job was to source & screen candidates for the vacant roles briefed into GCS from clients. Building and maintaining good relationships with candidates is important given the niche sector and it’s what I enjoy most about the job. It’s always a good day when you can tell someone they have been successful in securing a new role!
In regard to sectors, I specialise within Builders Merchants and Equipment Hire companies and predominantly recruit for sales, management and engineering roles.
What kind of roles are you recruiting for?
Given the recovery and fast movement in the market right now, it’s no surprise many companies are investing in new talent within their sales teams. We have a number of internal sales, account management and business development roles available across the country at all levels.
It’s a candidate market right now so if you are looking to move jobs, please get in touch. There’s a lot of demand for talent within the sectors at the moment so now is the time to secure the new job and salary package you might be looking for.
What’s the best thing about working at GCS?
GCS is also a really nice place to work – we’re given the trust and independence to manage our own days but help and support is always there when needed.
The best thing about my role securing new jobs for people! Being able to find the right person for our clients’ needs is important so it is always a great feeling when this happens.
What do you get up to outside of work?
Sport pretty much takes over outside of work however my girlfriend, Maisie and I are expecting a baby later in year which we are very pleased and excited about! At the moment, I play rugby at Wilmslow Wolves and try my hand at golf occasionally! Mike and I play tennis together too which can get quite competitive but I usually win!

Sitemark & GCS Associates
Sitemark are a Facilities Management Consultancy undertaking benchmarking across all industries including health, local government and private sector organisations. They offer independent best practice benchmarking processes to support the facilities management services.
Sitemark needed to expand their sales capacity and recruit a Senior Sales role into their existing team to promote the growth of the business. Whilst based in Worcestershire, Sitemark have employees working on a flexible basis across the whole country and therefore wanted to search across the whole of the UK to find the best talent.
GCS Associates managed the whole process for Sitemark. Sourcing the candidates, arranging time slots for interview and most importantly, providing Sitemark with quality, rather than ‘quantity’ applicants. GCS were thorough, swift, and supported Sitemark – advising through every stage of the recruitment process.
Mike Boxhall, Managing Director, Sitemark commented;
“Our experience of working with GCS was excellent. We would have no hesitation in working with GCS Associates again in the future – they were thoroughly professional in every way.”
From the shortlist GCS Associates provided, Sitemark decided to hire 2 candidates. Here’s what the successful candidates had to say:
“GCS took a genuine, supportive and knowledgeable approach throughout the process. GCS guided me through the interviews and were very helpful and professional. I am incredibly grateful to GCS for helping me secure a new role with a great company. Highly recommended”
“GCS were very friendly and professional and kept frequent contact during the interview stage. Thank you for finding me such a great job! It’s probably the best experience I’ve had working with a recruiter”.
Michael Parry, Managing Director, GCS Associates commented;
“It was our first foray into the world of Facilities Management and Sitemark were a new client, so we had to make sure we understood the culture of the business and what type of person would be a fit for the role and their organization. In addition to this we had to have a crash course on the world of FM.
There was a great deal of interest in the role and the hardest element was deciding on the final shortlist. Ultimately, two great people were employed by Sitemark and we established a new relationship with a fantastic business that has an exceptional product and service offering.”

GCS SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE PLEDGE TO HELP SECTOR GET BACK TO WORK AFTER COVID-19
During COVID-19 many of our friends, colleagues and peers within the Construction & Building Supply sectors have been affected by redundancies. As specialist recruiters in these areas, GCS acted by pledging their recruitment services, free of charge, to help as many people as possible back into employment. GCS completed the pledge recently by getting 21 people back into employment for 2021.
.
Michael Parry, GCS Managing Director explained; “The reasons we decided to launch the initiative were two-fold: Firstly, we were inundated with calls from great people in our sector, not used to finding themselves out of work, who found themselves in quite serious dire straits. Secondly, last year there was a very real sense of coming together within society, and this was equally prevalent within our sector.

Secondly, last year there was a very real sense of coming together within society, and this was equally prevalent within our sector.
A lot of our clients were making very generous charitable contributions and we wanted to do our bit. We were in a unique position where we could really help some of those suffering due to Covid related redundancies. If we were able to get a few people back into employment whilst helping fill critical roles for our clients free of charge, we were happy – we wanted to give back to our sector!”

One of the final few pledge placements were made with Huws Gray, a leading independent builders merchants in North Wales & the North West. Huws Gray employed 2 people as part of the initiative and Terry Owen, Huws Gray Managing Director said;
“GCS reached out to us about their pledge to get people made redundant due to the pandemic back into employment. To offer up their time and resources without charge I found highly commendable, and we were happy to support this worthwhile initiative. I am pleased to say we have our GCS Pledge candidates working for us and we’re really happy with these new hires.”

“We are pleased we’ve contributed to help our sectors recover from the impact of COVID. 21 people isn’t a huge number, but we know it meant a huge amount to those few. I would like to say a big thank you to the BMF for endorsing the pledge, thank you to all those businesses that supported the initiative and of course, a big congratulations to those people who have successfully embarked on their new career via the GCS Pledge of 21”
