Colleagues smashing their learning and development goals – we love to see it! Yasmeen, a Lead Talent and Acquisition Partner, recently graduated from our Effective Representative Development Programme. She says: "My colleagues and I have completed a number of virtual learning modules together. Our aim? To become truly effective representatives for our colleagues and business. Today was our graduation ceremony at Fort Dunlop! I’ve been with Currys for nine years this week, and it never fails to amaze me how we enable capable and committed colleagues to make Currys such an amazing place to work." Great work, Yasmeen!
The most wonderful time of the year (also known as our annual Peak event) took place this week! On Wednesday and Thursday, we welcomed along our tech suppliers, from SharkNinja and HP to Dyson, with colleagues able to attend talks and product demos to keep them fully up to date ahead of Black Friday and the rest of the festive period. Alongside the latest tech, colleagues could meet some of the People team at the Currys Careers stand, and learn more about growth and development opportunities within the business, as well as the perks and benefits we offer. Colleagues also got the opportunity to connect with representatives from all our ERGs: Embrace, Pride at Currys, Disability at Currys, and the Women's network. It was all rounded off by the annual Amazing People Awards, celebrating our best of the best. It's truly a brilliant event and we're a little sad it's over for another year!
