CASE STUDY – SHERBORNE SCHOOL
BRIEF: MRG was retained by Sherborne School to appoint an Estates Bursar to help deliver the next stage of their ambitious £22 million capital development programme as well as to take responsibility for the efficient and effective provision of estates planning, management and all facility support activities across the extensive and complex site. APPROACH: As the client lead for the development of a new Sports Centre as well as the refurbishment programme of existing boarding houses, it was of paramount importance that the successful candidate was able to provide technical due diligence as well as the full raft of cost and project management services. Given this criteria we sought to approach candidates with a surveying background across schools, higher education, arts & heritage and the private sector. RESULTS : Following a sustained search campaign via our established talent pool as well as direct approaches, we were able to canvass 120 individuals across the UK and beyond. Proposing an extremely credible long-list, 7 candidates were invited for an initial interview with 3 returning for an in-depth presentation, interview and tour. The successful candidate was appointed 2 months from the date of MRG being commissioned.
