Gregg Marrett
Location Manager
I’ve spent over 30 years in recruitment, with 25 of those focused on supplying clients with trades, labour and blue-collar staff across the construction sector. Recruitment has always been about people for me – building strong relationships, supporting careers, and helping businesses get the job done with the right teams in place.
I first opened Thorn Baker’s Birmingham office back in 2000 before going on to launch Valuestaff in 2009, building it into a nationwide construction recruitment business. Now, after re-joining Thorn Baker with my talented team, I’m proud to be leading our Midlands Construction operation alongside Andy Jordan. Thorn Baker and Valuestaff have always shared the same values – doing things properly, looking after our people, and building long-term partnerships – and coming together means we can do all of that on a bigger scale.
What I get the biggest kick out of in my role is seeing my staff happy and progressing in life through their own hard work. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me travelling around the country with my daughter for her football. And if you really dig into fun facts – I can even call myself an England international… though it’s only in walking football!
If you’re looking for a recruitment partner who knows the Midlands construction market inside out – and who believes in doing things the right way – let’s talk!
