Description

There has never been a more turbulent and uncertain time for those delivering public services and those in the charity sector, with the challenges of Brexit, an ageing population, financial pressures and the digital economy.

Key to meeting future challenges is having access to employees who not only have the right skills, but also the right values; bringing commitment, flexibility and innovation to their roles. Yet many employers are missing out because of a failure to maximize the talent of their female and BAME employees.

This event will look behind these issues and at practical solutions. It will draw on the experience of three pioneering organisations in this field:

Gapsquare have carved out an international reputation in assessing the gender pay gap and its causes across a wide range of organisations.

ACH /Himilo are leading providers of integration support for refugees and migrants through training, careers advice and business support, working with 2500 people per year.

Thresholds have done cutting-edge work within the public sector in relation to gender equality and career development.

Join us.

18th October 2018
