Our People

At Maison Moti, we recognise that our services are only as good as the people we employ, which is why we do not compromise on quality when it comes to our staff teams.

One of our many assets is the experience, commitment and drive of the Managers employed at Maison Moti.

We have decided to operate as flat a structure as is possible - so that we do not lose sight of operational issues, we only have a two tier structure. The first tier is made up of the Managing Director, and our two senior managers. This team meets on a weekly basis. The second tier comprises managers from each of the schemes and meets together with tier 1 managers every month.
