Colliers is proud to be a partner of the Refugee Talent Hub, which helps newcomers with a professional background find their way to the Dutch labour market. Together, we make talent visible, create opportunities and build sustainable connections.
Through a mentoring programme, our colleagues guide participants over several months. They share their knowledge, provide practical tools and use their network to open doors that would otherwise often remain closed. With this partnership, we contribute to a more inclusive labour market and strengthen our organisation with new perspectives.
Want to find out more about this programme or get in touch with one of these talented newcomers with a background in the real estate sector? Then come along to the Colliers stand on Tuesday 9 June at 11.00 for a presentation and an introduction.
