Grand Job is the name of an advocacy campaign promoted by Cope Foundation.
|
 |
The aim of the Grand Job campaign is to get real paid jobs for people supported by Cope Foundation.
|
 |
|
 |
Since the Grand Job campaign launched back in May 2015, nine people have been placed in jobs with nine Cork businesses.
|
 |
Cope Foundation hosted a “Grand Job” Breakfast Briefing for Cork-based employers in Radisson Blu Cork on Friday 8th April.
|
 |
At this breakfast attendees heard speeches from several people:
|
 |
Sinead Kane of The Kane Ability. Who is a motivational speaker.
|
 |
Katie Buckley and John Murphy of Katie’s Chocolate. Who are an employer and employee who were matched through the Grand Job campaign.
|
 |
Dermot Crosby of Department of Social Welfare. Who spoke about government grants and rebates for employers.
|
 |
Their speeches helped to inform attendees of the social and financial benefits of getting involved in the Grand Job campaign.
|
 |
The nine employers who got involved in Grand Job and Cork Chamber were presented with small gifts as a thank you for their work.
