Jake Marks


Director

Recruitment isn't just a job; it's a passion – and one Jake’s been chasing since 2013! After consistently smashing targets placing interim surveyors in the public sector, Jake and his brother decided to take the plunge and launch Marks Consulting Partners in 2015. 

More recently, Jake has established a private consultancy desk focusing on permanent recruitment for building and quantity surveyors.

Brook Weissand


Recruitment Consultant

Brook, affectionately known as the ‘mum’ of our group, recently moved onto the Property & Surveying desk covering the South East, bringing her trademark energy and dedication with her. She originally joined Marks Consulting Partners just over two years ago on the Regeneration & Development desk. With a strong mind and an incredible work ethic, Brook consistently goes above and beyond, taking initiative and showing unwavering dedication in everything she does.

Her determined personality makes her thrive in the recruitment world. Brook knows how to turn any opportunity, whether a challenge or a win, into something positive, always making the most of what comes her way. If she’s not deep in conversation with a candidate, you’ll likely find her raiding the snack drawer or adding goodies to the Ocado shop!

But Brook doesn’t just shine in recruitment. She’s also our (self-appointed and much-loved) Social Media Manager, a role she may secretly prefer! Brook runs all of our social media channels and is the creative force behind the quirky, engaging videos that have helped us attract new talent. Thanks to her artistic flair and background in textiles, our online presence is becoming a real standout in the industry.

Recruitment Consultant

Since the change, Sadie has provided a breath of fresh air to an otherwise male-dominated industry.

Never short of a funny comment or accidental one-liner, Sadie keeps the office laughing nonstop, whether she means to or not, we’re still not sure! Her combination of hard work and positive outlook makes her second to none. She always holds both clients’ and candidates’ needs in the highest regard, making her the go-to recruiter when it comes to Property and Surveying in the North.
