Over the last month, Good Logistics attended careers fairs at both Tranby and South Hunsley Schools. These events gave us the opportunity to display our company and career opportunities to the students.

We were able communicate with students from Year 7 upwards, to discuss the array of opportunities we offer at Good Logistics. Engaging with schools, colleges and community groups is an excellent way to support the talent pipeline and help recruit more young people to the Logistics Sector.

Emma Chapman, Head of HR, at Good Logistics, discussed the importance of careers fairs by stating “Informing and encouraging the next generation of workers to join our industry is vital for our continued growth in the future. We need to work with the education sector to ensure logistics is a career of choice.”

Our display consisted of flyers and other Good Logistics branded goodies, including pens and mouse mats, as well as an interactive logistics puzzle game, which received lots of attention.

Sarah Coates, Learning And Development Advisor, at Good Logistics. talked about the events stating “Careers Fairs are an excellent way for students to talk to different employers in an informal setting, gain an understanding of what the jobs entails, and the skills that are needed to be successful.  It was great to see so many students in disucssions with employers.  Raising awareness around logistics which very often was a career they had not considered until now.”

Overall, we had some very engaging discussions with many students. We loved hearing about their future career aspirations, and the interest they showed in our company and logistics in general. We look forward to attracting new talent this way and attending more careers fairs.
