Don’t just take our word for it

Since I joined Glaisyers in 2018 the training and professional development has been fantastic. There is a clear route of progression as I have gone from office assistant to enrolling on a solicitor apprenticeship scheme in such a short space of time.

Working with Glaisyers over the past year has been great. The smooth transition from college to working life was aided by kind and friendly people that work here.
