Meet the Maxim Team - Ellie Jackson

We have a new member of the Team! Within the last few weeks Ellie Jackson has joined us as our Sustainability and Community Co-ordinator, so we have been chatting to Ellie to find out a bit more about her!

Welcome to Maxim Park Ellie! Please can you tell us about your new role?

My role involves organising all the events and activities for our Maxim Park tenants as well as introducing new charity initiatives and coordinating our ESG strategy.

What roles have you held prior to joining Maxim Park?

I have a background in event management and prior to joining the Maxim Park team I was working in education events organising events around sustainability, entrepreneurship, career and employability for school students.

So what sort of things will be keeping you busy in the coming months?

I’ve been busy so far with organizing our busy December events calendar including our Christmas markets and drive-in cinema. In the New Year I’ll be working on our sustainability procedures, connecting with charities and prompting our onsite allotment.

What attracted you to a career in the property industry?

I was attracted to the property industry as I wanted the opportunity to meet and connect with lots of people. This role combines my love for events, community and sustainability which is great!

What are you most looking forward to achieving in your new role?

I’m looking forward to running lots of exciting events as well as getting to know the Maxim Park community.

Please can you tell us an interesting fact about yourself?

I’ve worked at 3 international summer camps: one in Canada and two in America.

What gets you out of bed on a morning?

A huge cup of tea! I love fitting in some quick yoga before work too.

What keeps you busy when you are not working at Maxim?

When I’m not working at Maxim, I love spending time with my friends and family, travelling and going to spin classes.

What does relaxation look like for you?

Being outside!

What was the last book you read? 

The Wrong Sister by Claire Douglas. I love psychological thrillers!

And finally, can you name your top 3 movies of all time?
