“A huge congratulations Jack, we can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!”
On his new promotion, Jack Crookes said, “It was no secret that the property market had slowed down and I found myself wanting a change in career.

“The past 10 months at Glu have been no doubt challenging, but incredibly rewarding. I’ve not only developed existing skills, but developed both professionally and personally.
“I’m really excited for this next chapter as Senior Recruitment Consultant and I look forward to this new sense of responsibility and continued learning along the way!”
