18 I joined Moorhouse in February 2017 and instantly felt part of the family. Moorhouse is a very supportive firm with a diverse client portfolio. As such, I have been able to work on a variety of projects and strengthen both my skill set and my knowledge. Moorhouse has been fantastic for me we work with great clients, help them with big challenges, and our people get things done but always manage to have a good laugh too! Having moved from one of the Big consultancies, Moorhouse has provided me with everything I expected from working at a smaller organisation. The organisation is agile and able to make decisions quickly with so many opportunities to get involved in and be entrepreneurial. The people are great to work with and there is a real sense of togetherness, openness and sharing of information. I feel that I am constantly learning and developing myself which is important to both me and Moorhouse.
