Louis started out in the environmental sector as a young and ambitious labourer and joined Maydencroft in 2012. He then chose to step away from the sector altogether to develop his skills in other areas. He was able to grow experience in the commercial world exploring management, sales, process improvement and customer service whilst working in the commercial vehicle industry.
Louis returned to Maydencroft as an Assistant Contracts Manger in 2020 with an opportunity to put together his wealth of knowledge and experience and invest them into an industry that really mattered to him. After 3 months Louis’ ability became clear and he started to run his own projects and contracts and therefore becoming a Contracts Manager.
Since then, Louis has run a wealth of contracts which have been delivered to County Councils, charitable organisations, local authorities, private clients and so on. He has overseen a plethora of projects varying in size but include an award-winning public garden which was designed and landscaped from scratch.
Two years after starting back with Maydencroft, Louis was recognised for his abilities not only to run contracts, but to make a significant impact to the running of the business and was given the role of Senior Contracts Manager to continue the forward trajectory for both his own career and the business itself. Louis was also nominated and awarded the ‘Pro-landscaper 30 under 30 – Next generation’ award.
“Maydencroft provides not only a fantastic work environment but great work ethics and endless opportunity. We pride ourselves on the positive impact we can make on the world around us. Being a Consultancy led business means that we put the environment first. Knowing that my work makes a positive impact to the earth that we live on fills me with pride, I love to see the transformations we create but enjoy being in a position to educate others around me in this way too. I hope that we have more opportunities in the future to spread the word to younger generations.”
