Why work at Go Glass?

Go Glass is a family-owned, award-winning design and production business based in Cambridge. Founded over 45 years ago, we’ve grown from a small glazing shop into one of the UK’s most creative names in architectural and decorative glass.

Our in-house team of designers and craftspeople work together to create everything from frameless partitions and etched panels to illuminated mirrors and bespoke display cases. Every piece of glass that leaves our workshop is made with pride, precision, and a friendly touch that’s been part of our family culture since 1978.

At Go Glass, we believe that great design is about people our customers, our team, and the next generation we’re helping to train. Joining us means joining a supportive, close-knit business where everyone’s ideas count and every project makes a visible difference.

“At Go Glass, we don’t just offer a job — we build your career. You’ll earn while you learn, gain a nationally recognised qualification, and help shape our next generation of glass design technology.

Expect mentorship, skill development, recognition, and real progression.”
