First introduction of the year, the longest standing member of the Scotland team. Regional Director John Brown. Read below to learn a little bit about Johns background and career. From Labourer to Regional Director: A Career of Growth and Excellence Starting as a site labourer for fitters, my 23-year journey to becoming Regional Director for Wagstaff in Scotland has been marked by hands-on experience, problem-solving, and a commitment to excellence. Along the way, I’ve built strong partnerships and led significant projects that define my career. Building a Career from the Ground Up I’ve grown through various roles—from labourer to fitter, site supervisor, logistics manager, and eventually Regional Sales Director in 2003. Each position taught me valuable lessons, shaping my ability to manage teams and oversee large-scale operations effectively. Collaborating with Leading Brands At Wagstaff, our partnerships with the UK’s top office furniture manufacturers have been vital in delivering high-profile projects such as Aker Solutions, Ulster University, Scottish Courts, and HMRC. These collaborations exemplify our commitment to innovation and client satisfaction. Leadership and Milestones As a leader, I focus on fostering strong relationships across our team and supply chain. A career highlight was leading Scotland to become the first Wagstaff region to surpass £5 million in turnover in 2008—a testament to strategic vision and teamwork. Lessons and Growth Mistakes, like a memorable early-career delivery mix-up, taught me the importance of attention to detail and continuous learning. These experiences fuel my passion for guiding my team and ensuring successful project delivery. Looking Ahead Reflecting on this journey, I’m excited to continue building on our successes, supporting my team, and delivering excellence for our clients. The road ahead is full of opportunities for growth and achievement. Here’s to more milestones to come!

More often than not, the answer is no... In this video Jasmine, one of our Field Managers, discusses the importance of her on-site presence and how it supports our clients' operations. Having visited a site managed by Jasmine, I've witnessed firsthand the positive impact she has had and continues to have on our client's businesses and their workers.

We put energy⚡ behind everything we do! Meet new hire Eddie Northcraft, our International Logistics Coordinator at our Repairs Division with his thoughts on MD&A: Q: Why did you choose to work for MD&A? A: I was working for another company doing international logistics and I did a lot of research on MD&A and found out what they did and it was definitely something I was interested in. I’ve been doing logistics for about 15 years now so it piqued my interest. It’s been about four months now and everything‘s out working out great. Q: How would you describe our company culture? A: Everybody’s friendly here! It’s a big corporation but they don’t feel like it. If you have issues and you gotta take a day off here or there - they’re very open and they’re very lenient on giving you what you need. Also if you have any other issues in your personal life - there’s programs that can help you. It’s just an all-around great atmosphere to be in! Q: What has been your favorite project at MD&A so far? A: My favorite project so far today has been a big international project and we’ve had to send trucks by barge over to an island. We’ve done probably around 15 to 20 air freight shipments to it. It’s just been one of those projects that’s a lot of moving pieces and a lot of manpower involved. It’s very challenging but it’s also very rewarding! Explore A Career with a Powerful Purpose! At MD&A, We truly work together, as one team! We collaborate, we listen, we innovate. Interested in joining our team?
