A look back at one year of working from home [Infographic] 1284 720 Growth Partners

March 17 marks exactly one year since we turned off the lights at our offices in Leicester’s Colton Square and set up our workstations at home.

When the COVID-19 pandemic hit the UK in March 2020, our priority was to protect staff and client services. With our roots firmly based in developing the latest technology, we knew we had the tools to continue to deliver from anywhere and provide a seamless service to our clients.

Paul Bresnihan, Group Chief Executive Officer, said:

“It’s been a tough time for everyone, and we have taken some time to reflect on what’s been an unprecedented year.

We, like all businesses, have learned a lot from this crisis, and I am truly thankful to all our staff who have each played their part.”

The infographic below takes a look back at some of the positives we have taken while working from home for a year during the pandemic.
