I was employed by HBJ-GW as a Filing Clerk which consisted of filing all day and this became a bit boring and repetitive.  Since joining Intelligent Office I have had a more varied role in the organisation which has consisted of mail handling, faxing, retrieving files from archive and other duties which have made it a more interesting position.  I have also found that everything we do is more structured and organised which makes a better working environment.

I have been working for Intelligent Office for nearly two years now and within that time I have progressed through a Team Leader Program and a Risk Assessment Program. When I finally made a bold decision to move to the City of London , all I had to do was say the word and Intelligent Office pulled out all the stops to relocate me and my job. I have never worked for a company so committed to its workforce and it feels first rate.

Initially when Intelligent Office took over at Clarke Willmott I was a little apprehensive about the changes and how they would affect my job. I could not have imagined the opportunities and job development that would be offered to me in return for my hard work and dedication. In a matter of months I was promoted to Team Leader and offered management training. From September 2007 I will be managing my own site and am delighted to be given this opportunity! The management support is fantastic and results in continuity of staff, loyalty, and, above all, exemplary service.

I worked for Vernon & Shakespeare as Office Manager for around 18 years we were a small firm of local solicitors. We were taken over by Clarke Willmott and within a very short time I was introduced to Intelligent Office who were to be responsible for the new Birmingham office of Clarke Willmott. I joined with very mixed feelings as to where my future may be going and what my role would be with Intelligent Office. I can now say that it has been a rather large learning curve which I have enjoyed very much. The ongoing support and training has been invaluable to me and I look forward to new opportunities in the future.

I had been working for Lindsays for almost 17 years when I transferred to Intelligent Office and the last three years have been amazing. My horizons have broadened and life is certainly never dull! I am being developed as a Team Leader and presently attending a Team Leader Development Programme which is both informative and fun. I enjoy the variety and challenges of the job and also working as part of an excellent team.

I have passed my first anniversary with Intelligent Office having worked for 14 years as a Print Room Officer. I saw my position as being an easy run down until retiring at 65, however the professionalism and enthusiasm generated by my new manager and the development opportunities offered, inspired me to stay on! Intelligent Office certainly does not subscribe to a blinkered ageism policy and I believe I am delivering a far better service than I was before. As a result of my positive experience, I recommended my daughter for a role on another site and am delighted to say that she has already been promoted to Team Leader and is thriving under the service delivery approach that Intelligent Office promotes.

I was employed by Harper Macleod as a post room assistant, which consisted of opening and sorting the mail in the morning, faxing, copying and any other duties that needed doing during the day. Since transferring to Intelligent Office in 2004 there has been a world of difference.  My days are more organised, I have had great input to my customer service skills and ultimately deliver a far better service. The team is much more structured and the client now gets a service which doesn’t suffer when absence occurs as there is always someone there to cover.

I worked as an office junior for Vernon & Shakespeare when the merger occurred with Clarke Willmott. Since commencing with Intelligent Office I performed general duties as a Docucentre Assistant which then led to having responsibility for deeds, wills and archiving. I have now been promoted and work for First Impression, which I enjoy very much. I did not see myself doing this job 4 years ago and I am grateful for the career opportunities offered to me by Intelligent Office.

Vicky Lowe, Clarke Willmott Birmingham

Before transferring to Intelligent Office, I only filed for one department and my role was a bit boring and repetitive.  The approach Intelligent Office takes in cross training and development means that my job is much more varied and I am always facing new challenges, making it far more enjoyable.

Caroline Gore, Gillespie Macandrew LLP

I personally feel the greatest positive change under Intelligent Office is the way we are managed.  Intelligent Office as a company is friendlier towards the staff.  We are allowed to think and take responsibility for ourselves and our departments.
