Paul Skitt will lead the business development teams at the college, one of the country’s top apprenticeship providers, and work closely with employers across the region.
The former head of business development at the College of North West London will focus on increasing the college’s work with regional employers, offering specialised training to support their growth and helping fill the skills gap in the region.
“Cambridge is a great city with a vibrant growing economy and I’m looking forward to working with employers here and inviting them into the college to see our fantastic training facilities and meet the students who could be part of their future workforce,” he said.
“As a college we want to continue making sure we meet the skills needs of local and regional employers through apprenticeships and staff development, as well as training our students for jobs in the local economy.
“There is a huge opportunity to work with regional employers and support their growth and CRC is well placed to meet their needs for more skilled staff.”
