Why Choose Pineshield?

If you work or have worked in retail or other customer-facing roles, you may be used to long, unsociable hours, feeling unheard or undervalued, and feeling that you lack some much-needed career development. We look to find people with the right values and aspirations. If you enjoy working with people but find your purpose lacking, a career at Pineshield could be just what you're looking for.

We are a growing company who want to build our staff to be the best they can be. We listen to our staff and encourage everyone to grow.

Pineshield are absolutely brilliant. I’ve been working here since January after having a year off after having my little boy. I’ve had nothing but support with everything. I enjoy going to all of the service users and meeting new people. They are keen to help people progress in the work place which is fab too if you were looking to do your QCF. Not a bad word to say!

Kathryn and Chris

We really appreciate the care and kindness the team show to Ann. Not just to Ann but the kindness and support the team have shown to us, has been over and above our expectations. We are new to this situation and seem to be muddling through each day. Your team are always positive and supportive towards us, when at times we feel we are struggling and exhausted. At times it feels like an emotional roller coaster. 

We really want to say thank you to Cleo, for going over and above wanting to learn sign language. 

Sekai, Stacey, Sophie, Natasha, Beth, Helena and Abbie, have really helped us move forward in making Ann feel more safe and secure back at home, seeing the team trying BSL with Ann encourages her to communicate and she feels included. We want to thank everyone for listening and working together with us, as we gradually see Ann feel more settled in this new routine. For Ann not to say anything negative, is proof in itself that the work your team is doing is excellent

Stacey Dobson

I currently work for Pineshield but I will not be biased in my review an be as honest as I can. Yes there has been issues, mainly a lack of staff causing these. It has been hard for all of us trying to keep up with everyone's needs, but by some miracle it is done.

The girls I work with go above an beyond and are working crazy hours, so to the staff who are still with us an to the staff who rightfully felt the need to leave for their own reasons I love you all, you all deserve a medal.
