(Assessment of Feline Housing and Cleaning Operations) [2015]

We were in desperate need a couple of years ago for a H&S specialist who could assist with DSE assessments that were proving to require additional expertise and experience than our team of DSE assessors.  Since this time we have built a very strong relationship with Jan and I feel Jan works with us to identify workable solutions that also fit with the culture and working environment of our offices.  I have no hesitation in recommending Jan's services and am confident she will adapt her expertise to suit your needs rather than providing a one size fits all approach.

Kirsty Scott, Facilities Manager, Global US law firm based in the City of London [2012]

I just wanted to reiterate my thanks for your supportive approach - you made me feel secure at a very vulnerable time, and I greatly appreciate it.

AR, Communications (Stress Risk Assessment) [2014]

ECU is a small 15 strong charitable organisation and in my capacity as Head of Resources I have worked with Jan for over 5 years, I have always found her advice to be invaluable. Jan provides a personal, efficient and reliable service and is well respected by all the staff at ECU. She has also run some in-house training sessions for us and provided some general consultancy on the accessibility side.

J. Adams, Head of Resources, Equality Challenge Unit [2012]

Jan Mulligan has worked with CILT on a consultancy basis for a number of years. She is held in very high regard by colleagues who trust her advice implicitly. Her assessment of colleagues’ problems – ranging from relatively simple to quite severe in some cases – and the solutions offered, have always brought positive results. Highly recommended.

Penny Rashbrook, Head of HR, CILT, The National Centre for Languages [2012]

Jan has worked for us in a DSE consultancy role for almost 2 years and in that time has provided our business - a City Law Firm - with excellent support, diagnosing issues and devising viable solutions with the utmost speed and efficiency; at times on very short notice. Jan has been an asset to our department and I would confidently recommend her to anyone in need of an expert in the field of DSE.

Giuseppe, Facilities, Global US law firm based in the City of London [2012]

Thanks so much for this, Jan. All the changes/additions look perfect and I am already noticing an improvement.
