The Partnership view

Our Partners are the heart of our business. Investing in them means investing in our long-term success.

“Unlike other companies whose shareholders are outside the business and only own shares for a short time, our shareholders work in the business. They spend, in some cases, their whole careers with us.”

Tracey Killen, Director of Personnel
