Logicor Reach Derby
Reach, delivered in partnership with Logicor, is a core skills development workshop which raises awareness of career opportunities in the logistics real estate sector.
What's involved?
The workshop gives young people an insight into the world of logistics real estate management and a chance to get hands-on with tasks commonly confronted by Logicor team members.
Over the course of a series of engaging team-based activities, students will:
- Develop their core transferable skills, such as presentation and teamwork.
- Apply expert insights to build and present a business case for their own UK logistics site.
- Hear key career advice and be supported by volunteers from Logicor’s amazing team members.
- Engage in the world of logistics real estate, learning about the global reach of one of the UK’s key growth sectors.
Logicor and the logistics real estate sector are key to the UK economy. The sector is growing with 2.58 million people currently employed in a variety of crucial logistics roles, with Daventry and the surrounding area being a national focal point.
Logicor are opening a major new site in Daventry, so they are taking the opportunity to deliver this exciting programme with The Talent Foundry at schools in the area!
