Interesting fact

I’m a massive TOWIE fan (only reason Jo Curtis got the job).

Hospitality and me

06/04/2011

Gavin has worked within hospitality recruitment for over 10 years and eventually found his calling to Platinum in 2011. Before Recruitment he worked for 12 years as a chef in small boutique hotels, pubs and restaurants allowing him invaluable insight into the secret workings of the kitchen. This insight has helped forge him a great career in which he now manages both our Chefs Division and the Pubs & Bars Division.

Social me

As a nearly forty something and going grey more and more each day, I’m learning to embrace my aching limbs.

However, I wouldn’t change a thing, I have a great family, amazing wife and two beautiful girls who wrap me around their fingers on a daily basis. I try and keep fit by playing football (badly) on a Monday night and running 2 or 3 times a week.  As a family we like to be busy either visiting family and friends or enjoying the beach or woodland walks in the Purbecks. I would love to get a dog but got a bit of persuading to do with my wife first! In my spare time you will either find me in the garden, planting or digging, or in the house doing some sort of DIY.

Why Platinum

I am so pleased I decided to join Platinum back in 2011. They have given me the support and development I needed to become successful in my career to date. We are lucky to be part of a company that is very welcoming, everyone is valued and they truly want everyone to succeed. We get rewarded with amazing summer and Christmas staff socials, with plenty of other social events thrown in throughout the year. I am very proud and privileged to say I work for Platinum.
