On the move: the latest East Midlands hires
Hallam Internet’s digital marketing executive Lauren Ahluwalia has been selected as one of only eight accredited advisers in the country to deliver training to over 10,000 women, as part of Facebook’s ‘She Means Business’ programme.
After receiving training from Facebook headquarters in Dublin last month, Ahluwalia will now be delivering training in a series of events nationwide across the year. These events will be delivering a range of resources, designed to help educate audiences on how to best utilise Facebook to grow their business and build their personal brand.
Ahluwalia will also be extending her training to her colleagues at Hallam, keeping them up to date with the latest business initiatives.
‘She Means Business’ is a collaborative project between Facebook, Enterprise Nation, and FSB experts in business. The project aims to support and empower female entrepreneurship by delivering resources to women, in an effort to motivate them and bridge the gender gap among UK business owners.
Ahluwalia said: “It’s incredible to be able to get involved with such an empowering project. The fact that I’ve been one of the women selected to continue this training for the year is a real honour. She Means Business is a wonderful opportunity to inspire a whole new generation of female entrepreneurs, and I look forward to delivering training throughout the year.”
Managing director at the Nottingham-based firm, Susan Hallam, added: “It’s an honour that Hallam have been chosen by Facebook to be part of such a proactive initiative for women. As a valuable member of the team, Lauren is a great choice to represent She Means Business. She has always demonstrated the drive and determination needed to succeed in her work, and will no doubt pass that attitude onto the women she’ll be training.”
Neptunus, the Northampton-based temporary structures specialist, has appointed Matt Clark as project manager for temporary buildings.
April Trasler, managing director of Neptunus, said: “Temporary structure technology has evolved rapidly with the equipment we have developed for short-term rental assignments being adapted to offer longer-term space solutions to the wider business world. We’ve had significant success providing semi-permanent accommodation already and, through the appointment of Matt Clark, we intend to increase resources in this sector.”
