STAR RECRUIT – ex-CEO of Barnet Council, Andrew Travers

George Alderman, recruitment consultant at hospitality recruiter Alexander Lucey, offers insight into a potential new career for Andrew Travers, ex-chief executive of Barnet Council. His local authority turned voters away at the doors when they went to their local polling stations to vote in May’s mayoral and London elections.

“Always smartly dressed, highly organised and with his background in public service he’d be ideally suited to a maître d’ position. 

“Adept at managing a guest list, no one will be turned away from any restaurant when he is on the door – as long as he’s remembered to get you on the list.

“His skills could easily transfer to a role as a doorman or a bouncer. But he would need to bulk up and develop skills in crowd management and dealing with potentially confrontational situations in a calm way.

“He would be well suited to a role in London, where he’s been serving the public for many years. He’s built strong relationships with businesses, especially in the Barnet area, and is keen to support local sports teams through his work.

“He is certainly full of confidence despite his latest setback and he also believes that the changes he implemented in his last job will allow them to ‘continue to thrive’ in his absence.

“He also comes highly recommended from his previous employers as he was praised for his ‘valuable contribution during his three and half years’ with them. 

“He can also start straight away, having left his last role by mutual agreement.”
