Our Offer to Staff

“At Excelsior we put WHO before WHAT. As Jim Collins wrote in his book, ‘Good to Great’, (whilst comparing a business to a bus), it is crucial to ensure we have the right people in the right seats on our bus and that we develop people into bigger seats, planning for succession at all times.”
