In this edition of Punchline, we celebrate the 100 biggest employers in Gloucestershire.

Our team of reporters have been beavering away, speaking to companies across the county. We have asked them how many people they employ and whether they are recruiting in 2019.

The result of those labours is - we hope - a comprehensive list of the public and private sector companies that employ staff in the hundreds and thousands from Cinderford to Cirencester and all points in between. It also highlights how many jobs will be on offer in Gloucestershire in 2019.

If you read the list and feel you should be in there, get in touch with us ahead of next year's 100 Biggest Employers edition, which will be hitting the streets at the same time in 2020.
