Bradford graduate support

Support for graduates

The employers we work with recognise the importance of a workforce who are connected to our local communities and value the diverse perspectives and insights this diversity brings. GWB is working with employers across the Bradford district to recruit and retain a diverse workforce and develop inclusive workplaces. GWB is here to support your journey into employment and get your graduate career off the ground. We know that leaving University and progressing into the right job can be a daunting process, but we can help you envisage what the future career could look like and help you achieve your ambitions.

I am the only female at my base who works on site a lot; being the only female on site seemed like a bit of a challenge as I’d never been in that environment before. Everyone at Colas made me feel very welcome though and it was not as scary as it appeared at first. Sometimes being a woman in construction works better for you! My gender has never been a problem for me working in this company, I always feel like I belong.

Kiram Hussain, 2017 graduate working at Colas, Leeds.
