Business Details
Alex Young Recruitment is a highly experienced Facilities Management recruitment agency and we work with the biggest Facilities Management companies in the sector. We have a strong reputation for professionalism and going the extra mile - whether you are looking for your next step up the career ladder or looking to recruit your team's next superstar.

Alex Young Recruitment was created by Matt and Claudio to offer a specialised service you don't get with every Facilities Management recruitment agency. With decades of experience in the sector we are well aware of what frustrates you as a client or a candidate throughout the recruitment process. Therefore we don't offer a standardised service. We tailor our approach to ensure both clients and candidates find the perfect match during the Facilities Management Recruitment process.

We work fully in partnership with our clients, adapting to the way they want us to handle their recruitment needs. We have provided excellent recruitment services to some of the largest facilities management organisations in the UK, from Aramark to Kier, so find out what they have to say about us on our clients page.

Claudio has exceptional market knowledge in all sectors within the FM Industry and is dedicated to providing his clients and candidates with a service that exceeds the previous recruitment specialists he has worked for.
Jobs
At Alex Young Recruitment we recruit for facilities management jobs across all levels - from caretakers and fabric technicians, to senior account managers for leading facilities management service providers.
We work with our clients to identify the most suitable candidates for your business and sector, whether that is retail, local authority or commercial workplaces.
Here are some examples of the areas within facilities management recruitment we operate in.
These roles can include both Director level and senior operations manager positions, both for Facilities Management Service Providers or in-house facilities management teams.
Clients
Every client is unique which is why Alex Young Recruitment offers a unique, transparent approach to recruitment.
Unlike other recruitment companies we don't expect you to fit in with the way we work.
Our philosophy is to work in partnership with you, to fully understand your needs so we can put forward the right candidates.
Whether you are recruiting senior management or recently qualified engineers, we'll guarantee to meet your specific expectations.
A small M&E provider will not have the same requirements as a national TFM supplier, who will not have the same needs as a company looking to grow an in-house FM and Maintenance team.
Candidates
Whether you are looking for a step up the career ladder or a new challenge, searching for a new job is a big step.
When you select Alex Young Recruitment to represent you in your career move we'll guarantee to find you a role that you are passionate about, that you want to get out of bed for in the morning.
We'll build a strong relationship with you, to find out what makes you tick and discover the person behind the CV.
Once you are registered with Alex Young Recruitment, we'll match your exact skill-set to our current opportunities and discuss which companies you would like us to approach on your behalf.
Minor Projects
All our temps are paid on an hourly rate, so if budgets run out or are withdrawn, there are no late penalty fees that you might incur with sub-contractors.
You use the temp for as long as the project dictates, keeping you in control of your project spend.
Most sub-contractors will come to agencies to source their labour anyway; this means you incur extra costs as you are paying another agency margin on top of what you are paying the sub-contractor.
By using direct labour from Alex Young Recruitment you will reduce your project budget.
Business Support
Without an efficient business support team, facilities operations can crumble.
Often the business support team provide the backbone of a successful facilities management operation.
Likewise, a strong business support team can be what separates your company from your competitors.
At Alex Young Recruitment we have years of experience in sourcing the best in Facilities Management administration and business support candidates.
Our specialist Business Support division will take the time to find out from you, the client, exactly the type of person they you are looking for and the administrative skills you require.
News & Views
Instead of advertising roles as maintenance electrician jobs or mechanical engineer jobs, companies are increasingly advertising positions as multi-skilled maintenance engineer jobs.
We regularly speak to maintenance engineers who feel they do not have the relevant multi-skill experience that companies are looking for.
Sometimes things just don't go your way!
You can do hours of preparation and plan for every possible situation, but ultimately it is out of your control and something goes amiss.
