On the move: the latest East Midlands hires
A leading property consultancy has added to its planning team in Ashby after making four appointments.

“There is a significant need for both housebuilding to meet housing targets and large-scale infrastructure projects, and we are well-placed to support the delivery of these.”
Sinead McCaffery
Ashby workplace consultants and commercial office fit-out firm Blueprint Interiors has expanded its furniture supply team following the appointment of Sinead McCaffery as a furniture project co-ordinator.
Head of furniture, Gemma Ryder, said: “Flexible working and how employees prefer to work means that the specification of office furniture is a much more considered decision. There is a greater wider range of options available from leading UK and international furniture manufacturers. It is therefore important that we expand the size of the team so that the ordering and delivery of furniture is carefully co-ordinated alongside the overall office fit-out schedule.”
McCaffery added: “I have always respected Blueprint Interiors and its reputation as a specialist within the interior design industry. As well as being experts in their field I liked the fact their culture and the way they design for clients is very people orientated.”
Law firm Banner Jones has welcomed six more colleagues from across its Chesterfield, Sheffield and Mansfield offices onto its Trainee Scheme.

All of the candidates have completed their LPC and are now undertaking their Period of Recognised Training, following which they will be fully qualified solicitors.
Banner Jones’ CEO, Simon Wright, said: “We’re delighted to be training such a large number of colleagues to qualify as Solicitors, in addition to providing support to those undergoing various other qualifications.
“It is important to us that all of our staff enjoy working for Banner Jones, and that they have every possible opportunity to further their careers during their time with us.
