We're delighted to welcome Marc Bolland, Lead Non-Executive Director at the @DWPgovuk as a speaker at this year's #TourismPolicyConference2026. Marc will explore "Tackling NEETs: Getting Young People into Work," looking at what employers can do to open doors for young people not in education, employment or training, and how business and government can work together to tackle youth unemployment. He will share ideas on creating clear routes into work, the role of the Government's #YouthGuarantee, and how sectors like hospitality and tourism can lead the way. A former Chief Executive of Marks & Spencer and Morrisons, and former Chief Operating Officer of Heineken, Marc is the founder of the charity Movement to Work, which has delivered over 200,000 opportunities for young people facing barriers to work. In his DWP role, he convenes Chief Executives across sectors to help expand opportunity and tackle youth unemployment. With a business leader's perspective on the #VisitorEconomy workforce, Marc brings valuable insight into how employers can build the talent pipeline the sector needs for the future. Join us on 17 November for a full day of keynotes, Q&A and debate on the issues shaping the future and growth of #UKtourism. ⏰ GET TICKETS 👉 lnkd.in/eCNXnBcK
