What employers have to say about Shaw Trust:

"Working with Shaw Trust is a perfect win-win situation; the local community is
very important to Tesco and this partnership ensures we can access a wider range of skilled staff for our business."
Lorna Bryson, Head of Resourcing for Tesco

"I’m telling everybody about Shaw Trust and the great work that it does, because it’s a match made in heaven. They give 110%, both to their clients and to the employer, and the workers we have taken on are absolutely first class, which also pleases our customers who then recommend us to other businesses."
Neville Williams from 5 Star Security Services

"Key Account Managers at Shaw Trust have taken the time to understand us and the key requirements of the roles we recruit for. They have helped build our reputation locally as an employer of choice; we have held open days at their premises that have been designed to give candidates a greater understanding of opportunities here, and give them the confidence and support to apply.’
Louise Martin from O2

‘I wouldn’t go anywhere else for staff unless I really have to. If I need more staff I pick up the phone to Shaw Trust because, compared to people I have employed from other sources, they are without exception the better employees and I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Shaw Trust to other businesses."
Simon Parsons from AVIS

"We have a really fantastic and powerful relationship with Shaw Trust... as a business we save money because we don’t have to pay agency fees. Most importantly, we get people who are hungry to work... they ensure that candidates are job ready and we get a better employee as a result."
Matt Cove from MKDons
