Insight day at Porsche East London Thursday 29th August 2024
Yesterday we were delighted to welcome members of Islington's Leaving Care Service and The ACED Project along with a group of young people to Porsche Centre East London to discover the opportunities amongst our business.
One such strand of their work is known as INSIGHT Days, an opportunity for young people to spend a day at a business/organisation learning about the plethora of job roles within a particular industry. " I believe young people should exposed to as many different experiences as possible, in this way they are able to make an informed choice about what it is they are interested in" Les Rowe, Education, Employment and Training Advisor at Islington Council and co-founder of the ACED Project.
Porsche Centre East London Workshop Manager, David Hutton provided a talk on his background from growing up int he Islington area through to his path today working at Porsche, along with the insight into the myriad of employment opportunities at a main dealership.
The young people had a great time looking around the dealership, with the assistance of expert tour guide and New Car Sales Manager, James Jordan.
