Ollie
Head of Ecommerce & Digital Marketing
The story of Ollie’s recruitment is a tale that shows persistence really does pay off. Upon seeing a vacancy posted online, not only did he submit his CV, he also contacted many members of staff on LinkedIn, offering a wide variety of horticultural services in exchange for an interview. Getting in touch with Ollie to inform him that his bribes were successful proved to be of little challenge, since he’d been camped out in the warehouse bins since the vacancy was posted.
After a successful interview and informing his family of his whereabouts, Ollie started on that same day, and quickly became a popular member of the Peli family, largely because his promises of gardening services were immediately written into his employment contract.
In between landscaping Phil’s mounds and trimming Deb’s shrubbery, Ollie occasionally dabbles in digital marketing.
