Employers - register your interest

  • FuturesUP was a great event to attend as an employer. I loved interacting with the students and demystifying what publishing companies do and explaining the range of roles that are involved in the publishing process. It was a really well run event and would recommend it to both students and employers! Emily Large, Recruitment Programmes Advisor, Penguin Random House
  • A well-organised day with engaged, prepared students who really knew what they wanted to get out of the experience. Hana Stevenson, EDI Coordinator, BDB Pitmans
