Why choose Shrewsbury?
Sunday Times Style Magazine named Shrewsbury one of its '10 coolest postcodes to move to in 2024' – "a half-timbered beauty awash with independents."
We couldn't agree more. For workers, opportunities in Shrewsbury range from modern marketing in 16th-century buildings, to career growth in legal offices a stone's throw from acres of parkland, to the chance to get involved in the town's nationally recognised food scene – and much more.
Experience life at a pace worth living in beautiful Shrewsbury.
