MBM Travel Executives | Contracting / Purchasing Jobs

During my time as Managing Director of Travel Republic, I’ve been working with Marie to help find the right talent to join our business ranging from Director level to mid/management roles. Marie is an absolute pleasure to work with, super responsive, truly understands what we are looking for, and most importantly understands our culture and identifies candidates who would be the right fit! Our team is much stronger thanks to the talent and quality Marie has helped bring to our business. I’m looking forward to continue to work in partnership with Marie as our business continues to grow.

I’ve worked with Marie for years and she has become a trusted partner. I love her honesty, enthusiasm and tenaciousness - she is determined to find the right person for her clients. She is patient and never puts pressure on - she respects the client’s timelines and needs and understands when things change. Marie knows Travel inside out, has an incredible network and puts forward quality candidates, saving so much time screening and sifting. I have no hesitation recommending Marie to travel businesses needing help recruiting.

I have worked with Marie on a number of key roles. Her understanding of the travel industry and the requirements for key senior roles make the process much simpler by ensuring that only candidates with relevant experience and attributes are sent for consideration. This has saved me a lot of time by not having to sift through a mountain of CVs that don’t have the right experience.

Marie is one the most hard working and determined people I have had the pleasure to work with. Her drive and energy is infectious and inspiring. She is very quick to spot a business opportunity and excellent at targeting and closing them. She is one the most honest and sincere people I have had the pleasure to work with. People genuinely enjoy working both with her and for her. Marie is a very definite asset to the travel industry and always has businesses best interest at heart. She's a fighter and extremely determned and loyal. She inspired me to up my game and believe in myself and my strengths. I can't recommend her highly enough. A genuine asset both personally and commercially. I can't wait to do business with her again.

Nigel McShine-Jones - Sales Manger, UK & Ireland, Legoland
I have known Marie for several years now and had the pleasure of working with her both to recruit candidates and as a candidate. In both cases she worked hard to understand my requirements and only supplied candidates or roles that matched the agreed brief. Marie is trustworthy and an expert in her field, I am pleased to recommend her for all executive search needs.

MBM's knowledge of the travel sector and ties with some of the most high profile business in the industry put them ahead of the crowd when it comes to finding your next career move.

Steven Moore - Head of Ecommerce, Hotels4U.com
Richard was simply fabulous - he really is there for you all along. It starts with simple but important things like the fact that he listened carefully to all my requests when I was searching for a new job. Once I had the interview he gave me lots of useful tips and was super supportive that day. And even after I got the job he was still taking care, making sure I'm happy at the new place. I really appreciate all of that and can only recommend this man.

Anna-Maria Janssen - Product Manager, Winged Boots
Richard was great at finding my next role - he was happy to help me perfect my interview technique, my presentations for interviews and be on hand for advice. I would highly recommend using Richard to help you find the right position for you - I'm very happy and very pleased with the service I received.

Marie is a force to be reckoned with in the travel sector - she knows everyone and everything. I've worked with her on and off over the years and always found her straightforward to deal with, honest as the day is long and she does the business too. Highly recommended

Paul Bondsfield, Travel Marketing Director
Marie is fantastic at her job and through her tenacity made me see there was a bigger and better work opportunity for me. I was kept well informed throughout the process, and I am very grateful to Marie for putting me forward, as I am now settling into my great new position.

Rosie South, Head of Operations
Marie has placed a number of roles for me. She takes the time to understand each role and the culture of our business to find the best candidate. I've also used MBM when searching for a new role and have found the same level of service. Ensuring my skills and personality was matched to the right company. After 5 happy years in role for me, as well as 6 happy employee's in our company that has to be a HUGE thumbs up for MBM.

Lina Slater, Head of Business Development & Display Advertising
I have been working with Marie for several years now. Being it previously my own placement or the recent recruiting of two candidates in Europe for the current company I can only recommend Marie's services. Her pre-screening and evaluation of suitable candidates is spot on and the hiring process smooth, professional and most efficient for all parties involved. Thank you Marie and Richard.

Amazing service from knowledgeable people. Really helped me throughout the process (I was a candidate) and I'd happily recommend or use them myself for any future recruitment.

David Bray, Senior Commercial Manager, Explore Worldwide
I found Marie really great to deal with, being friendly, open and fast to respond to messages or updates at any time of day. She gave really good advice and guidance and was very supportive throughout the process. One thing that I think makes MBM stand out is they're focused on matching the candidates very specifically to the roles to ensure only the right people are put forward. This benefits both the recruiting companies and the candidates. Highly recommended

Justin Stanton, Marketing Director at Marsh & Parsons
Having been made redundant from my marketing role at a travel company at the end of 2020, I was looking for an approachable, sympathetic and professional recruiter to help me secure a role at a company that would suit me and my career goals. Marie was wonderful from start to finish; going through my CV in detail, understanding what makes me tick and giving invaluable interview prep. Thank you for all of your help in getting me back into the travel industry.

Katherine Hall, Digital Marketing Manager, Mark Warner
Marie is honestly the best Recruitment Specialist I have ever worked with in over 15 years of working in recruitment both in the UK and in New Zealand. She is the person responsible for getting me into the recruitment sector. Her energy, intuition, professionalism, and outstanding work ethic have enabled me to build a highly successful recruitment career for myself. Marie has the absolute perfect mix of being able to talk to anyone about anything at any level. She is fast but doesn't cut corners. She is ambitious and driven, and I have never seen a role she hasn't been able to fill successfully. Most importantly, she is honest, has high moral standards and is in this business for the long term trusted relationships she builds, not for a quick fix. Anyone who gets to work with Marie is a very lucky business!

It's been a pleasure working with Maika and Marie! They reach out to me recently with a job opportunity and took the time to understand my background and made sure that it perfectly matched the job specs. Guided me through the process, kept me updated along the way and made sure we achieved the best possible outcome which was me accepting the offer. :) I would recommend MBM to any of my connections looking for a new role in the travel industry!

John Hall, Group Financial Controller
Leila is an asset to MBM Travel Executives recruitment. After applying to a role and initially not making the cut for interview, she ensured to get back in touch when the role was still vacant a few months later. She was extremely kind and everything you could ever want in a recruitment agent. Thanks Leila!

Helen Jackson, Marketing Manager
Amazing Service from start to finish! Leila was very helpful, insightful and supportive throughout the whole interview process. Leila continued to support and communicate with me even when on holiday and was a great support even after the Job was done! Leila went above and beyond, and I am forever grateful.

Richard was simply fabulous - he really is there for you all along. It starts with simple but important things like the fact that he listened carefully to all my requests when I was searching for a new job. Once I had the interview he gave me lots of useful tips and was super supportive that day. And even after I got the job he was still taking care, making sure I'm happy at the new place. I really appreciate all of that and can only recommend this man.

I've also used MBM when searching for a new role and have found the same level of service. Ensuring my skills and personality was matched to the right company. After 5 happy years in role for me, as well as 6 happy employee's in our company that has to be a HUGE thumbs up for MBM.

I found Marie really great to deal with, being friendly, open and fast to respond to messages or updates at any time of day. She gave really good advice and guidance and was very supportive throughout the process. One thing that I think makes MBM stand out is they're focused on matching the candidates very specifically to the roles to ensure only the right people are put forward. This benefits both the recruiting companies and the candidates. Highly recommended

Having been made redundant from my marketing role at a travel company at the end of 2020, I was looking for an approachable, sympathetic and professional recruiter to help me secure a role at a company that would suit me and my career goals. Marie was wonderful from start to finish; going through my CV in detail, understanding what makes me tick and giving invaluable interview prep. Thank you for all of your help in getting me back into the travel industry.

Katherine Hall, Digital Marketing Manager, Mark Warner
Marie is honestly the best Recruitment Specialist I have ever worked with in over 15 years of working in recruitment both in the UK and in New Zealand. She is the person responsible for getting me into the recruitment sector. Her energy, intuition, professionalism, and outstanding work ethic have enabled me to build a highly successful recruitment career for myself. Marie has the absolute perfect mix of being able to talk to anyone about anything at any level. She is fast but doesn't cut corners. She is ambitious and driven, and I have never seen a role she hasn't been able to fill successfully. Most importantly, she is honest, has high moral standards and is in this business for the long term trusted relationships she builds, not for a quick fix. Anyone who gets to work with Marie is a very lucky business!

Leila is an asset to MBM Travel Executives recruitment. After applying to a role and initially not making the cut for interview, she ensured to get back in touch when the role was still vacant a few months later. She was extremely kind and everything you could ever want in a recruitment agent. Thanks Leila!
