Business, Finance & Legal Event
For our Business, Finance & Legal Event, the plan is for employers to deliver a series of talks to groups of students, studying Business, Economics, Maths, Law, French, Spanish and Travel & Tourism.
The focus of this event is to increase awareness of career opportunities within growing areas of business such as logistics, as well as how working in the business and financial sectors can lead to exciting careers all over the world.
