Work Placement Coordinator — Business, Health & Social Care and Education (City Hub)

My name is Weronika Zalewska and I joined Nottingham College as a Work Placement Coordinator in January 2023. Helping young people find their feet in the world of work is extremely important to me, as it is difficult to move up the career ladder in this day and age, and young people deserve a chance to have an easier time of it. I believe that this generation is the one that will change the world for the better, and in order for this to happen, we need to raise up and support minorities and students who do not have the connections that those more privileged do. I am also an avid reader and historian, hoping to pursue my PhD in History soon.
