A Nando’s restaurant in central Edinburgh has taken on 15 new members of staff through the government’s Work Programme, through employability services firm Ingeus.

Nando’s interviewed a total of 35 Ingeus clients ahead of the new restaurant’s opening, and these jobseekers eventually filled half of the jobs available.

General manager at the restaurant Davie Greenan says: “Ingeus took so much pressure off me in recruiting for the restaurant.

“They held an initial Nando’s recruitment day at the Ingeus offices in Edinburgh, set up all the interviews, and handled the back-to-work paperwork for the successful applicants, all free-of-charge.”
