As a key venue for the Commonwealth Games (CWG) hosting the primary Athletes' Village with some 3,000+ athletes and team officials, as well as the sport venues for squash and hockey, the University of Birmingham is a focal point for the event. To amplify the opportunity, the University of Birmingham has also invested significantly to become a proud Official Partner of the Games at the highest status.
While the University of Birmingham carries a substantially scaled operation for catering and events to manage the 35,000+ students and 5,000+ staff that are accessing the campus at any time, there is a requirement to augment that existing operation with an appropriately skilled and qualified catering and event workforce specifically for the CWG.
