ELBA’s Employment and Skills team helps local people in East London to find work within City and Canary Wharf companies.
LBA’s employment and skills team has an impressive track record of helping local people in East London to find work within City and Canary Warf companies. With unparalleled knowledge of the local labour market, our employment programmes are designed and delivered in partnership with leading community job brokers and business supporters.
ELBA’s unique status, as an alliance and network of some of the region’s largest private and public employers, lends itself perfectly to the skills and employment agenda. We are able to access opportunities not readily available to those from disadvantaged backgrounds; challenging the status quo of recruitment practices and creating careers and social mobility for local people.
