Graduates into Employment Committee re-brands and goes on the Talent hunt…
One of Birmingham Future’s standing committees, Graduates into Employment Committee, has changed its name, and with it, its remit. The newly formed Talent Retention & Development Committee will focus on graduates getting into work in Birmingham but also look at how, as a city, we can embed those graduates and young professionals into the Birmingham fabric.
Talent doesn’t stop when a graduate gets the job they want, it’s about career and personal development. As a city, we can sometimes be accused of not shouting loud and proud about what Birmingham has to offer every graduate, not just in the first few years of their chosen career, but right through to becoming business leaders. This is what the Talent Retention & Development Committee is all about. Anthony McCourt, current chair of the committee said ‘It’s testament to the members of the committee that they are up for expanding their remit and with it, providing a greater offering to the Future membership. Make no mistake about it, our bread and butter starts with graduates in this city but from today onwards, it doesn’t end there either”.
Look out for upcoming events led by this committee.
