Optima UK offer a professional and tailored service for both Recruitment and Business Consultancy. They are focused on building long-lasting relationships with their clients and partners that bring added value service and meaningful results.


They have been offered a contract from Birmingham City Council, which supports health, wellbeing and support to businesses to help engage staff. The idea is to focus on reducing absenteeism, increasing overall productivity, lower employee stress levels and offering a free toolkit of advice to those homes that may be stretched or need additional support and guidance in these areas.

 

Optima UK had a fantastic response and uptake in Worcester then they rolled out a similar contract there earlier this year.

 
This Free launch event fully funded by the Birmingham City Council will advise attendees on how to access Free Business Support.


  • Event: A Bolder Healthier Birmingham
  • Location: The Great Barr Hotel, B43
  • Date: Tuesday 24th September
  • Time: 09:00 – 13:00 


This free to attend networking event will include guest speakers that will advise attendees about free Business Support to upskill your Leadership team on how to:


  • Reduce Absenteeism.
  • Increase Productivity.
  • Drive Revenues.
  • Handling Mental Health


See the attached flyer for further information.
