Madeleine Richards

Group Head of Corporate Governance

​Work: Maddy has been with the group since 2016 joining as compliance administrator. Currently, her aim is simple. To help the group become a lean mean recruitment machine (without actually being mean).


Life: Originally from Yorkshire, she can usually be heard before she is seen. Even though Maddy is very clumsy and often spills her tea she loves to keep fit and even managed to rope a few people from work into completing a wolf run.
