NOVUS, the partnership between leading companies and the University of Huddersfield to attract and develop the next generation of supply chain professionals, has been shortlisted for Training Team of the Year 2017 in the Talent in Logistics Awards. The winner will be announced at the prestigious event on 22 June 2017, which is being held at the Telford International Centre and hosted by stand-up comedian Tim Vine.

The Talent in Logistics Awards 2017 recognise and celebrate the skills and hard work of people in the logistics industry – from apprentices to LGV drivers and from trainers and HR managers to logistics managers.

Bethany Fovargue, Operations Manager at NOVUS, said: “The NOVUS team, students and sponsors are very proud to be shortlisted for the Training Team of the Year 2017 Award. This is a tremendous recognition of the successful first cohort graduating last July and taking up their guaranteed jobs. NOVUS is committed to providing superlative graduates as the long term, strategic answer to the serious skills gaps and shortfall of talent evident in the logistics profession.”
 
Wincanton, Arla, Muller, DHL, CEVA Logistics, asos, Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Smiths News, PZ Cussons and Hoyer are just some of the 25 NOVUS sponsor companies giving NOVUS students work experience and placements.  And, of course, every successful NOVUS graduate is guaranteed a job.
