Gareth Broom
Managing Director - Land and New Homes Manager
About me
Before founding GCB Recruitment, I started my working life many years ago at the age of 16 at Barclays Bank. After 5 years in banking, I started my career in Estate Agency working for the likes of Spicerhaart and Countrywide.
After over a successful decade in Estate Agency I moved into recruitment until 2010, when I took the step of starting GCB Recruitment from my spare bedroom! Since that moment I’ve never looked back.
When I not running GCB you’ll find me on a plane to Dubai, still checking my work emails! Or supporting my home team of Norwich City FC.
Joined GCB: 2010
Something you might not know: While working for Abbotts Countrywide as a Branch Manager, I appeared in BBC’s ‘Escape to the Country’. In my younger days, I also had trials for Bristol City FC and Cambridge United FC.
