Former programme participant and 2019 winner Natalie Downie, Managing Director at F&T said: “I am a huge advocate of the programme and I understand firsthand how it nurtures talent and develops future leaders. My own career has gone from strength to strength since completing the programme and I’m delighted that F&T is able to support it as Principle Partner once again. The programme aligns with our values and is a fantastic way for us to show our support for the region’s talented future leaders. As Principle Partner the programme helps us to raise our profile as a local employer and gives us the opportunity to recognise talent. I personally cannot speak more highly of Top 30 Under 30 and its amazing LEAP Programme.”

The brainchild behind the scheme is recruitment entrepreneur Simon Jones, who has developed the programme to offer invaluable professional development and personal growth opportunities to the region’s top young talent. Building better communicators and strong future leaders the programme helps participants to transition from good operators to good managers and leaders. The year-long programme is high impact and delivered in a way that makes the sessions vibrant and challenging to generate real outcomes. 

The Humber economy is on the up, and offers the business community several, significant opportunities. For business to grab a hold of opportunities it’s important to develop our region’s talent which is why F&T is backing the Top 30 Under 30 for the third consecutive year.
