The Local Skills Improvement Plan’s new Haulage & Logistics Workforce Development Partnership

Date: 21st March 2024
Time: 9:30am – 11:30am
Venue: DoubleTree by Hilton Newbury North, M4, Junction, 13 Oxford Rd, Newbury RG20 8XY

We are pleased to announce the inaugural meeting of The Local Skills Improvement Plan’s new Workforce Development Partnership for the Haulage & Logistics sector.

The Workforce Development Partnerships (WDPs) serve as a collaborative forum bringing together employers along with education and training providers to address workforce development challenges and formulate effective solutions. The primary objective of the WDP is to foster dialogue, exchange ideas, and promote collaboration to enhance the skills and capabilities of the local workforce.

The Haulage & Logistics WDP across Oxfordshire & Berkshire will focus on raising the profile of the sector and promoting it as a career of choice to improve recruitment and career progression. We will partner with The Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport to identify employers who will invest their time and resources to influence and inform careers advice and guidance as Ambassadors, through their Generation Logistics Ambassador Network. It will also promote the expansion, development, and delivery of further education and training provision to meet the needs of the sector locally. If you have any further questions regarding the WDP, please contact Simon Barrable, LSIP Engagement Officer.

Please may we invite you to confirm your attendance to Siobhan May, Thames Valley Skills Unit Co-Ordinator.

Could you please also confirm in your response if you are happy to be added to an outlook calendar invitation for future meetings.

Big Logistics Diversity ChallengeBook Now
Start Date:20/06/2024 09:00
End Date:20/06/2024 17:00
Event Code:ABC0881
Description:


The Big Logistics Diversity Challenge:

  • Showcases and emphasises the positive difference diversity brings to the industry
  • Brings together a cross-section of industry workforce, from undergraduates to CEOs
  • Promotes organisations’ messages supporting a more diverse and inclusive workforce
  • Opens doors for those looking to embark on a career in the rail industry

Why is ED&I important?

A diverse and inclusive working environment, where team members’ unique needs, perspectives and potential are respected and encouraged, creates a sense of belonging. When employees feel more connected at work, they tend to work harder and smarter, producing higher quality work. As a result, organisations see huge gains in business results, innovation and decision-making.

“Without diversity and inclusion we won’t have diversity of thought; without diversity of thought, we won’t have innovation; without innovation we won’t have sustainable supply chains; and without sustainable supply chains, we won’t save the planet!” – Richard Atkinson CBE, CILT Fellow and Aston University academic fellow in supply chain management and engineering systems
