Getting Young People Into Work - Our Generational Challenge!

Free Senior HR & Talent Leaders Event, Liverpool

Youth unemployment is rising fast & employers across Liverpool & the North West are feeling the impact. Early attrition, disengagement within the first 6 months, unrealistic expectations & pressure on line managers are now common challenges for HR & Talent teams.

Senior HR, Resourcing & Talent Acquisition leaders will come together in Liverpool for a free, working session focused on 1 urgent question:

How do employers attract, engage & retain young people into work & make it sustainable?

This is not a conference & not a panel event. It is a practical, discussion-led workshop designed for leaders actively responsible for workforce planning, early careers & talent strategy.

For senior HR leaders, this marks our first Liverpool event & brings together experienced professionals who value honest conversation, shared learning & practical solutions, not sales pitches or theory.

What to expect:
Senior HR & TA only audience
Guided discussion & workshop format
Practical ideas to take back into Q1 2026
Insight into engaging younger workers without lowering standards
Peer learning with HR leaders from across the North West

Royal Albert Dock, Liverpool, Thursday 22 January 2026, 4:30pm-8:00pm (arrival from 4:15pm), Free (registration required)
Sponsored by AudienceLink & hosted by Plus Dane Housing.

If engaging young people into work is on your 2026 HR agenda, this is a Liverpool HR event for you in conjunction with The HR Connection Group.
