Scholarship Fair 2017

The Scholarship Fair 2017 was a busy event today, with lots of students keen to find out more about the opportunities available to them in a range of roles across the business.  On offer were scholarships valued at up to £9,000, in addition to a 12 month paid placement.  It was wonderful to see so many of last year's scholars, now in their third year and on placement, representing the companies, engaging with students and sharing their placement experiences with this year's potential scholars.
