The FIRM is delighted to announce that after 4 years of requests we are coming to Manchester.  We will be running a ‘Building Resourcing Capability’ Conference on Friday 27th September 2013 at The DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel in Piccadilly

We will be following a similar format to the successful formats in the last few conferences.  Using a multi-stream model we are structuring the day with a range of key note speakers, practical workshops and a round table discussion. This will give all attendees the opportunity to learn and the flexibility to choose which of the syndicate sessions/workshops they would most like to attend.

The day will give people the opportunity to gain insights into best practice and some practical ‘how to’ advice in some of the recruiting essentials that we often take for granted.
