OLDER managers and executives seeking work are being offered a helping hand by a new Malvern-based recruitment agency.

Peter Woods, who has a background in marketing and sales, started the Worcester Road-based firm Executive Experience specifically for the more mature manager.

"There's a misconception that because someone has reached their 60s, 50s or even 40s, that they somehow have no relevance in today's business world," he said.

"This often comes about because younger managers feel uncomfortable with the thought of hiring or supervising older, more experienced and qualified executives."
