Gary Leese is currently undergoing his Level 4 Associate Project Management Apprenticeship Qualification with Heart of England Training. Gary works at Staffline, the UK’s leading provider of flexible, temporary, and permanent workforce solutions. By working hand in hand with their clients as an integrated business partner, Staffline also resource, recruit, and mobilise large-scale workforces.
