FTW launches no-fee hiring service for warehouse sector

Liverpool-based training provider FTW Training has launched FTW Recruitment to provide fee-free hiring services to the warehouse sector.

FTW Training specialises in equipping unemployed individuals with the skills, expertise, and certifications needed to excel in the warehousing industry.

FTW’s offer to employers is a no-fee recruitment service, which is already turning heads in the sector.

Jamie Rice, company director at FTW Training, said: “Our purpose is to transform the lives of unemployed people by upskilling them through hands-on training and helping them gain qualifications like RTITB and AITT accreditation for operating forklift trucks.

“We recognised that we had a very large pool of enthusiastic, highly skilled, and job-ready people who could really contribute to a company’s workforce, but we needed to do more to make them accessible.

“The recruitment division of the company was set up as a non-profit entity to help local employers access a bank of potential employees.

“This really supports our mission of reducing unemployment and is a real win-win for employers and trainees.”

Rice added: “Working with a service that helps the locally upskilled unemployed shows a real commitment to social responsibility and community development.
