They came to discuss the remarkable FareFutures Employability Project, which focuses on empowering individuals from challenging backgrounds to secure stable employment in a warehouse setting.
This fantastic programme helps over 1000 people across the UK gain valuable employability skills every year. The Partnership between FareShare and JJ connects jobseekers from the programme with employment opportunities across the food service sector.
Joanna Florczak, our Head of HR, emphasised that at JJ Foodservice, we value a "positive attitude and a willingness to learn" above all else. "We don't discriminate based on where you come from or your personal circumstances – everyone has an equal opportunity to be part of our team," she said.
We commend Megan, Becky, and FareShare for their outstanding efforts in supporting our local communities 👏 Stay tuned for updates on our collaboration!
