The Northern Network Group is a new networking group which has its roots in an informal group of ex-military Officers who started their second careers in the Inverness area and met to share business ideas and information about job opportunities
Wednesday 14th September
Ramada Jarvis Hotel, Church Street, Inverness
6.30pm – 8.30pm
Supported by Officers Association Scotland, they are now opening up their network to all current and ex-military personnel in the Inverness area. As with every network the value added and the value gained is determined by the willingness of every individual member to bring something to the party and thus create benefit for both NNG collectively and the individual.
Networking is a skill which can always be improved upon and refined according to the group and audience, whether it be for a Service Leaver, a recent graduate and just as importantly, if not more so, as a new comer to an environment. Networking is an efficient and easy manner in which to expand one’s own contacts, knowledge and appreciation of other industries and opportunities.
There will be three key focuses to Northern Networking Group:
1. To assist any Service Leaver during or after resettlement.
2. To assist any member of the NNG who is looking for advice or guidance about their career opportunities.
3. Establish a functional network for the benefit of all members in and beyond Inverness both from the professional and commercial point of view.
We actively encourage participation from the wider Inverness business community. Therefore if you have any business contacts who might be interested in attending, please invite them to come along on the 14th.
If you know of any service leavers who would be interested or benefit from joining The Northern Network, please do invite them to join us. If you are interested or simply curious feel free to call or email Mary-Clare Macfarlane, Head of Employment Services at the Officers Association Scotland.
