We're helping to empower businesses with migrant talent

In a rapidly evolving business landscape, tapping into the potential of migrant talent has never been more crucial. Last week our GC Employment/Business Growth Hub teams hosted an event for the North West Regional Strategic Migration Partnership (RSMP), which was tailor-made for forward-thinking businesses that are keen on addressing talent challenges, overcoming skills shortages, and achieving their diversity and social value goals. 

It encouraged businesses to discover how migrant talent can bring fresh perspectives, skills, and innovation to their operation and gain insights into how to bridge skill gaps within their workforce effectively.

It included inspiring keynotes from industry leaders who’ve successfully integrated migrant talent into their organisations. There were panel discussions delving into best practices, challenges, and opportunities related to migrant talent and we also heard from migrants and refugees thriving in the North-West, and the positive impact an inclusive business mindset has had on them.
