What do our team think…

“I started working for AJW and joined the accounts team in May 2016. I joined as a purchase ledger clerk to continue in a role which I had 5 years’ experience in.

Since joining the team, I have progressed to Accounts Payable/Accounting Assistant which has allowed me to begin working on management accounts, learn new skills and take on more responsibilities.

Last October, AJW gave me the chance to start studying towards my AAT Level 2 – an opportunity which I have been very grateful for, as this was something I’d always thought I would never do.

I work at the Chatteris depot and am super lucky to work with a great team of people, we’re like one big family and have some brilliant nights out together!

I enjoy working for AJW for many reasons. I am able to help others across the business and get in involved in different areas, each year the company have held a summer party for everyone which is always good fun and gives you a chance to meet the other depots and also this September they are holding a charity fundraising event “Alan’s Challenge” which I am very excited to be taking part in.”

Tiffany TibblesAccounting Assistant, AJW Chatteris

“I started work at AJW Essex on the 2nd Feb 2014 as a class two HGV driver.

In 2015, I had the opportunity to become the company Transport Manager for all the depots in East Anglia.

It was a large challenge – one that I was ready to accept and have enjoyed since I started.

I was also given the opportunity to be involved in the company H&S. As I have had previous experience in a similar role, I took this on board as a new challenge and am committed to ensuring that the companies H&S is always of a high standard.

I really do enjoy working for AJW. The company has expanded, so my roll and commitment to the company has expanded too.

The backing and support from all staff members from the Managing Director all the way down is always there 100%.

I’m a person who likes to work and I look forward to getting up and going to work.”

Donald Goldsworthy-EllsonTransport Manager, AJW
