GPW launches Rugby League Recruitment

Thu, 2 Sep 2010

Multi-sector recruiter GPW Recruitment is launching a new division - Rugby League Recruitment. 

This new division places current players into day release work placements with local firms to help them gain experience and work out what they want to do after their Rugby League careers.

Players who have finished their career in Rugby League will be placed into full-time work. Rugby League Recruitment is also working with St Helens College to organise short training courses for the players to work on basic skills such as numeracy, presentation and basic computer skills. 

Mark Parish, managing director of GPW, says: “After years of working closely with Saints [St Helens Rugby League Club] I feel we are in a great position to help the players, and also to give many local clients the opportunity to get involved with these acclaimed athletes.”
